My Wife and I joined Dr. Scott Thompson with MDVIP about two years ago. We wanted access to good doctors and medical care quickly. At our age, all ailments are urgent. Over these two years with Dr.T, important ( to us ) medical issues have arisen which we wanted information quickly. Dr. Thompson and his staff were always available.

I became very sick, and my daughter decided it was time to call my doctor. She called his office number, not knowing he was on vacation, and she left a message. Soon her phone was ringing, and it was Dr. Thompson calling her from his vacation in a foreign country! He was most helpful in answering her questions and making her feel more at ease.
We’ve never had a doctor who would call us…

The few times that I have been sick, I have called Dt. Thompson’s office or his cell phone number. I have always received a very quick response to my medical question. I have sensed that when I call, a whole team works together, harmoniously, to answer my question
( through Dr. Thompson), and takes care of my needs. Thank you so much for taking care of your patients’ needs!

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.
