Meet Scott L. Rex, MD


My commitment is to provide the best comprehensive care possible. The patient relationship is critical in achieving that goal. While there have been many advances in medical technology, there is no substitute for the human experience. The patient is always a person first and deserves to be treated with dignity, respect and compassion.

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.

I was charged close to $300 for a subscription that was cancelled last August I’ve requested a refund They have so far refuse to do so This is considered theft Consequently I will be filing a civil suit to get my money back In addition the subscription in question if fulfilled which I have no evidence that it was would have been sent to an address I no longer live at Stay away highly risky dealing with them

Wow Dr. Rex is an amazing Doctor who spends endless time with you and even calls to follow up on how you are feeling after a sick visit. I read the below review and from experience I can say I've never ever experience nothing but the best care from Dr. Rex before are after the new VIP program started. I wasn't happy to have to join but he is so worth it and more. He cares, really cares and always takes time to explain whats going on with my illness. I'm an asthmatic with other issues that have caused me to see a hematologist Dr. Chaduk and a gastroenterologist Dr. Abittan (which are both amazing and recommended by Dr. Rex) so I need a doctor that cares and holds my hand. Doctor Rex does this and more. reviews are so important but not always the end all. If you're posting a review be aware that others are reading and stick to the facts. reviews are interned to inform not harm

I am a new patient of Dr. Rex and initially was pleased with him. Recently I received a sonogram with abnormal results and had to wait two weeks to get a copy of the report from the radialogist. The day of the sonogram, the sonogram technician spoke to the doctor who was making hospital rounds. The doctor then spoke to me and I was advised to make another appt for another sonogram. I was not told was was abnormal about my exam. The doc then went on vacation for a week. Do you think when he returned he called me? No, he did not. I had to call and pester employees to get a copy of the report which I picked up the day of my second sonogram, which was August 6th 2014. Technician said Doc would have report the following day. Next day I call, I am told there is no report. On Friday, August 8, 2014, I receive a call report is in but I cannot have results because the doc is on vacation until next Thursday. I request that the covering doc read it and call me with results and am told he cannot. I then ask they call the vacationing Dr. Rex give him the results and then call me back. Staff agrees, I receive a call that the doc will call me later that night, August 8, 2014. It is now Saturday, August 9, 2014, still no response from Dr. Rex. I can only assume since the staff is unable to tell me the results that the test is again abnormal. Based upon the prior report and a lack of response from Dr. Rex's office, and research I have been doing, I need blood work performed and need to see a specialist. I will be switching doctors.

This year my wife and I did not have any serious health issues. It might well be because of the care we've been receiving from Dr. Rex and his staff.
Being 80 and 79, it is comforting to know that he is just a phonecall away, 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. With our previous primary care care doctor, we felt fortunate if a call was returned with 2 days. And when we had office visits, he seemed harried and was in a hurry.
Not with Dr. Rex. He gives us as much time as we need, and in the past, he once answered my call in California.

He is the worst doctor I've ever been to. I was admitted to St Francis Hosp for shortness of breath. I was put on oxygen and morphine. So much morphine the nurse told me she couldn't even wake me up. Dr. Rex came in twice and both times all he did was try to convince me to sign up for his concierge type practice which would cost 1,600 per year and then he would be on call for me. He never discussed my shortness of breath or the reason for the excess of morphine. I was not in intolerable pain when I went into the hospital. I do suffer from severe arthritis of back and knees, but I was treated like I was in intolerable pain. Dr. Rex is very good at prescribing an excess of pain medications. My Son heard dr rex trying to sell me on his practice and he thought it was deplorable and even unethical for him to be selling himself with no regard to what was wrong with me. I was not told to see anyone upon release from the hospital except Dr. Rex.. I am now on oxygen for heart problems ever since that episode at St. Francis, a heart hospital where I never saw a Cardiologist unless they came when I was unconscious from morphine. Dr. Rex also had the nerve to send me letters urging me to sign up to his program and send him the money of course when I joined. He should not be practicing at St. Francis. I wont even go back to that hospital for fear I will be stuck with the ego driven, poor example of an Internist. Stay away from him. and his wife who runs the office is impossible to deal with. terrible attitude and incompetent to boot. You will never get your test reports in a timely manor.

Scott Rex is our family primary care physician. The word “care” in his title is significant. He is thorough, skilled and very proactive. Those attributes are important and much appreciated. But his very sincere and caring approach to his practice is impressive. He is clearly a great professional.

Excellence...

from Alok in NY • August 10, 2020
We met Dr. Scott Rex in 2007 or 08, when my mother became eligible for Medicare & Medicaid. Before that, our family used to see another GP in Port Washington. When we asked him about my mother, he said he did not accept Medicare, and said there was “a new kid down on Port Boulevard” who “probably does…” so off I went (for mom…) Well… mom immediately fell in love with this “new kid”.
