What our members are saying

Dr. Coney has been the best physician I have been to in Atlanta or any other city where I have lived. At appointments, he always gives the patient all the time they need to ask questions or address concerns and will give detailed answers to resolve any issues. He really does offer personalized service, including the times when my husband and I have been overseas and got sick. I suggested to Dr…

Really great guy -- very responsive, thorough, and articulate. Good communicator and listener. Clinically dependable and trustworthy. I have been seeing Dr. Coney for about 25 years and I intend to remain his patient until his retirement or an untoward event occurs.

I cannot express how much I believe Dr. Coney has been the main reason I am still here among us. It started to first time we met, and I was not happy with the approach my former doctor took as it related to my heart disease. Dr. Coney immediately set up a new type of test that showed I had 5 blocked arteries (2 100). I immediately had bypass surgery of 5 arteries. Then recently, while having…

Frequently Asked Questions

Doctors who operate in the MDVIP models typically see far fewer patients than traditional primary care doctors. That gives them more time to develop deeper doctor-patient relationships that can lead to better outcomes. They can also offer conveniences that most primary care doctors can’t, including same- and next-day appointments. They’re available after hours for urgent matters. And they have time to focus on prevention. That focus begins with the MDVIP Wellness Program, which patients pay for with their annual membership fee.

Most MDVIP-affiliated primary care practices accept insurance (your physician can tell you whether they accept your specific insurance plan). Your annual fee pays for preventive care medical services that insurance usually doesn’t cover (e.g., advanced diagnostic testing and screenings). Your MDVIP-affiliated physician will continue to bill your insurance and charge copays, co-insurances and deductibles as he or she currently does for other medical services like sick visits.

MDVIP makes wellness and prevention easier by providing your physician with innovative tools and technology. MDVIP supports your physician’s practice and seeks to eliminate barriers to a positive healthcare experience. Your doctor will determine whether and how to incorporate these tools at his/her discretion.
