What Members Are Saying

Through the last two years, I have been the sole caregiver for my Father. At 95 living alone and not able to drive any longer, he became quite a handful. He insisted that he wanted to stay in his house. His health was fair and he could still live independently, until he couldn't. He became very demanding and thought I should just drop everything to attend to his every need. During this stressful time Dr. Hammer was always available to me when I needed advise or support. He certainly helped me maintain my sanity. My dad ended up the last month or so having 24 hour care at home. He turned 96 and passed two weeks later. Dr. Hammer was there for me and continues to be my good friend and my Doctor.

Patient of Scott A. Hammer, MD, FAAFP

I’ve been very happy with Scott Hammer as my primary cate physician for the past five years, but never more so than when I was admitted to a hospital for the treatment of pancreatitis. It was a difficult hospital stay, but Dr. Hammer was with me via phone and text throughout. He even shared some test results with me before hospital staff did and then he coordinated my post-hospitalization care through two gastroenterologists. In the end his initial conclusion on the cause of the pancreatitis was confirmed.

AUSTIN

Patient of Scott A. Hammer, MD, FAAFP

Scott Hammer is an awesome person and a great doctor. We were his patients before he started with MDVIP and followed him into concierge medical care. He makes it worth it. You can tell he genuinely cares. He's always willing to go the extra mile to ensure me and my family get the best care possible. If he feels something is outside his area of expertise, he's willing to research and call on his colleagues to make sure we get the care we need. It's not about ego or money with Scott. It's about his patients, his people. We definitely appreciate him and how he cares for our family. He's a part of the family as well. It also doesn't hurt that we share an alma mater (Go Tarheels!) and even the same dorm even though it was a decade a part. He's our doc and we are so glad that we have him in our corner.

Meet Scott A. Hammer, MD, FAAFP

Family medicine is about families. My desire as your family physician is to provide you with the same type of personalized healthcare that I expect for my own family. As an MDVIP-affiliated primary care doctor, I have the time to focus on your healthcare needs and those of your loved ones. By providing a warm, unhurried atmosphere, I have the energy to serve as your primary care physician in a manner that you deserve. It will be an honor, as your personal doctor, to develop the type of relationship that fosters excellent health and well-being across the life spectrum.

Apart from obstetrics, I practice the full scope of family medicine, from birth through the type of end-of-life decisions that my additional board certification in Hospice and Palliative Care necessitate. I believe in quality of life throughout an entire lifetime and will work as a team with you and yours to ensure that you are living your ideal life. My MDVIP-affiliated practice offers services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices. It is my fervent desire to know my patients well and, by doing so, be better equipped to manage their health.

I have special interests in pediatric, adolescent, adult and geriatric health, chronic disease management and minor office procedures, to name a few. I suppose that doesn't really narrow it down, but in my office we will be able to focus on those interests that are important to you, with an emphasis on wellness and prevention. I am fluent in English and Spanish, a member of the Bayhealth Board of Directors and Medical Staff and serve Central and Southern Delaware and beyond!

I look forward to our future together.

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.

Scott Hammer is the best doctor I have ever had...and I am old, I have had many. In a time when most doctors double - and triple-book patients at 10 or 15 minute intervals, treat only their specific piece of a patient and do not take the time to familiarize themselves with patients or their patient's health problems, Dr Hammer is in a class by himself! His bedside manner is absolutely unsurpassed. He books one patient at a time (always has) and takes whatever time is necessary to diagnose and/or treat them. He leaves no stone unturned. His medical knowledge is truly encyclopedic and his memory is AMAZING! He even remembered what color the walls of my late mother's bedroom were...and he had not seen them in 8 years! He was our doctor before his office became affiliated with MDVIP. We joined MDVIP just to keep him as our doctor. MONEY.WELL.SPENT.

Dr. Hammer is the most thorough and knowledgeable physician that I have ever visited. He is very outgoing and always makes you feel at ease. Greatest "bedside" manner that I have seen in my life. Understanding and easy to talk to and I have the utmost confidence in his diagnoses and the advice that he gives.

Best. Doctor. Ever
Dr. Scott Hammer is an extraordinary physician and I consider myself lucky to be in his care. His devotion and commitment to his practice and his patients are unequaled, and he is always up to date on the latest changes and innovations in healthcare. Now that I am joining the ranks of the retired, I am even more grateful to have the benefit of his exceptional talents and abilities, coupled with an unsurpassed level of genuine care and concern for my overall well-being and quality of life - encompassing not only the physical, but the emotional and mental as well. For more than 20 years, Dr. Hammer has made - and continues to make - an extraordinary impact on my life and I am forever grateful and proud to be part of his practice. He is truly a one-of-a-kind physician, healer, and human being.

I've never had a negative experience with either, Dr. Hammer, or Dr. Barnes.

I appreciate that Dr. Hammer:

is so approachable, so informed, so ready to go above and beyond; and does. That he had a sense of humor; and allows me to display mine.

He set me up on a schedule to be seen regularly before he joined MDVIP. I'm one of those who rarely thinks I'm sick, or has anything serious enough to bother my Doctor. Hence, by the time I've ignore the issue, exhausted all the over the counter remedies, and finally realize I need to see my Doctor, I'm in trouble.

I feel that we have a working partnership. I am not one who wants to take any type of medication, and NO narcotics. He goes to great lengths to ensure that I am informed, aware of all possible options, but respects that it is always my decision.

I respect, appreciate, and value all that Dr. Hammer does; and I'm very grateful to be his patient.

Thank you Dr. Hammer

I am extremely pleased with Dr Hammer. How many times can you call the Doctors office and get in immediately. Because of my age I’m on Medicare and he spends 2 hours twice a year going over the thorough tests results. Myself and Doc set goals to improve my health. Couldn’t ask for better service.

Dr. Hammer is a personable, intelligent, well informed and caring physician. He is quick to respond, even by text message, after hours. He was notified when I was admitted to the local ER, and called my husband to check on me. I can't say I have ever had a phjysician do that before. If you are looking for a doc who is responsive, this is your guy.

Dr Hammer was a "Godsend" I wish I could give you 100 stars. Because you are far superior than any 5 star review. You are simply the BEST doctor I know! He is always pleasant and serious when he needs to be. And I really have to hand it to you Doc... You won over my husband and that is not an easy task. He thinks you walk on water. And the superior care that you give us keeps me in awe of you. I hope that you are still as happy as you were in the beginning when you made the choice to go Conceirge Doc. The staff, since you went to MDVIP, is totally amazing- always happy to help (as quick as possible)They seem to really care about your well-being, even on those crazy busy days they manage to make you feel like you are the only patient in the practice. Dr. Hammer is a wonderful wonderful doctor!!.Thank You for taking care of me and my family in a way I believe Only You can do. Luv ya man!

I am extremely happy to be a patient in Dr. Hammer's practice. I wish that I had joined sooner. The quality of the health care that I am receiving is superb. He has helped me several times when I became ill while traveling. He is reachable 24 hours a day and for that I am very grateful. I was recently hospitalized and he was "on top" of my treatment and the care I was receiving. He communicated several times daily with my husband to reassure him that everything necessary was being done to help me. About a year ago, I called him when my husband became ill while traveling and Dr Hammer was able to provide him with treatment so that we could safely return home. He and his staff are amazing and are always on "top of things." I am so glad to be a member of your practice. Thank you Dr. Hammer!

As some one else posted, I, too, transitioned into MDVIP care because Dr. Hammer did.

He has always given fantastic care and taken the time necessary to do it. Now he does not have to worry about the overscheduling that used to be necessarily commonplace. (Nor do I. )

I know not everyone can afford this plan. I am grateful that my husband and I make it a priority. Our health and peace of mind are worth it.

I credit Dr. Hammer with saving my life. The details are personal. My gratitude and trust are not. :-)

I know his interest in my health in all facets, not just medical, are genuine.

I appreciate you, Dr. Barnes, and your staff, Dr. Hammer.

Just wanted to thank Dr Hammer and his staff for the amazing responses they have given myself and family thru out this year. I was a little apprehensive about this new program but I really like and trust Dr Hammer so we joined the program and have just absolutely been thrilled with the care we have been given! The times we have called with any problems at all have been dealt with literally within minutes and with no time spent in the waiting rooms!! So just wanted to say thank you to the staff at Southern De Medical group.I know you all have worked hard in and during the transition but it sure has been a blessing to me.
Thanks again and may God bless you!

Dr. Hammer is absolutely the best family medicine doctor I've ever had. Before MDVIP, he was a caring doctor and an excellent diagnostician. Now that we've joined his MDVIP practice, it is a whole new world of care.
I've messaged him, and he stopped, while on vacation overseas, to message back and forth, and call in much-needed prescriptions. Together we created a wellness plan, and I lost over 80 pounds, and counting! He made room in his day to care for my injured daughter, with a crushed finger, and he is now her favorite doctor in the world. (Her own regular doctor could not or would not make time to see her. This was all during Covid, so we wanted to avoid emergency rooms.) I value him so highly that when my in-laws moved here, I recommended they see him, and he now cares for them. I trust this man with my family. I cannot give him higher praise.

While the MDVIP physical was fine, if someone wants to forego a certain part due to a specialist treating the patient, it should not be tried to urge the patient into doing it anyway.
Also, the multiple calls reminders calling early morning and late evening is tedious and unnecessary. The option of one text reminder is sufficient.

Scott is the best Doctor that I have ever had. His demeanor and professionalism abound. He remembers everything about you, even the color of your bedroom if he had made a housecall (Yes he did and Yes he did). When my 91 year old father first met Scott his review was " Only Doctor I ever liked,,, and he's got a ponytail!!!".... I can't say enough good about Dr. Scott Hammer.

Our physician, Scott Hammer truly cares about the health of our family. He always answers our calls/texts and follows through with us to make sure we feel good about our health situations and decisions. We are always able to get an appointment with him when needed and he has been super responsive on off hours in emergencies. He’s also amazing with our children and wants them to be healthy and happy. During their visits he spends time getting to know them and talking with them about who they are and how they are growing. My husband and I have had a lot of medical issues over the last few years, and I wouldn’t have been comfortable with anyone other than Scott working with us to make sure our health needs were taken care of. He’s attentive, listens and provides good advice. He also makes sure we are referred to the best specialists when needed. We are so happy that we made the switch to the MDVIP program and have Scott as part of our family.
