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.

Testimonials from patients of Sharon A. Scanlon, MD, FACP

My Story

from Nancy in MD • April 3, 2024
My story is very short and simple. I have been a patient of Dr. Sharon Scanlon since before she was a MDVIP doctor. She is, in my opinion, what every doctor should be...a good listener, concerned and caring, and up to date on the newest medical information so she can help one make educated medical decisions. She answers emails and phone calls the same day and I have never had a problem getting an Read more...

Pancreatic Genetic Testing

from Randel in MD • April 2, 2024
Dr. Sharon Scanlon is always good but she was particularly helpful and attentive to me with a very specialized question about genetic testing for pancreatic cancer, which runs in my family, and she assisted me on and provided great guidance and follow up.

Dr. Sharon Scanlan Has Provided Extraordinary Care on my Behalf

from Sipe in MD • March 9, 2024

I recall her saying when she joined MDVIP that a principal benefit of that Read more...

Being There

from Elliot in MD • March 9, 2024
Health calamities have a way of occurring at night and on weekends. The automatic message is to visit a nearby ER which seems always busiest and least accommodating at night and on weekends, More than once over the last four months I have had urgent medical needs where, without recourse to Dr. Scanlon, I would have landed in the ER. Because Dr. Scanlon makes herself available at all times, I Read more...

Valentine’s Day

from William in MD • March 9, 2024
On Valentines’s Day I loved Dr. Scanlon’s MDVIP service. I had a frightening episode and called her cell number early in the evening and she immediately picked up. She said it didn’t sound like a stroke, which was one of my concerns, but advised me to take an aspirin and said she would check in later before sending me to the ER. She called back later in the evening on Valentine’s Day and we made Read more...
