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.

My husband was so impressed with the care I received from Dr. Stapleton, he decided to drop all his male doctors to become a patient of hers.

A Lifesaver

from Elizabeth B in SC • March 13, 2024
During the late 1990s, visiting Dr Sarah Stapleton for my Diabetes followup check, she found a small dark spot on my great right toe that she thought I should have checked by a dermatologist. I followed through with the appointment and was diagnosed with Melanoma. I underwent several procedures to remove the Melanoma with follow up visits every six months to a year. To this day, I have not had Read more...

Thank heavens for her thorough annual physicals

from Pamela in SC • March 13, 2024
Dr Sarah Stapleton may have saved my life this year. She 'found' a lump in my breast during my annual physical, which is an hour-long, hands-on review of my body plus various breathing, hearing, and strength tests. I know my husband's internist does not do same. This finding of a lump was obviously concerning because I had had my annual mammogram and ultrasound just four months Read more...
