About Sami Zamani, DO
My primary care practice philosophy centers on a strong bond with patients, whom I consider family and friends. Through this relationship, I can better evaluate and provide treatment options. I find that to see the full picture of patients’ health, I need to know them more in depth. Similarly, treatment adherence relies on trust in the physician and the direction that is recommended. I like to take extra time to better educate patients about their illnesses and treatments so they can make the best decision for them. It is the strength of the bond between the patients and their physician that I believe determines the quality of the outcome. I focus considerably on carefully forming and nurturing this bond over time.
While I practice full-spectrum adult primary care, I have a special interest in elder care. This is a fascinating time when patients serve a key role for multiple generations of their family members and require as precise and personal medical care as possible to help maximize quality and function in their lives. Additionally, I am very interested in the knowledge of the world and life experience that patients bring.
My family’s clinic has been serving Tempe, Arizona, and the East Valley for more than 43 years. We know how to deliver personal, responsive and well-coordinated care. I am honored to continue running our clinic for another generation. My MDVIP-affiliated practice offers services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices.

Reviews from the web
We switched to her husband for one month post/op check up (why did Zamani even wait that long to schedule follow up?). He just told us to put my very physically able and cognitively alert mother into hospice and just accept that she was going to die.
I don’t think Dr. Zamani was competent and overlooking weighing my mom at her initial post-op visit and noticing she had dropped from pre/surgery 80 to post surgery 68 lbs, and not following up as she dropped to 66, 64, 62 was negligence.
I wouldn’t go near this doctor and I regret I made the mistake of choosing Dr. Zamani instead of one of the other Bloombergs to see her immediately after her surgery.
My mother died on April 15 due to malnutrition.
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.
