About Shelli Ridge, DO

My approach to wellness is to nourish mind, body and soul. Mind and soul come first, because without this, you may not be motivated to take care of your body. Having a healthy relationship with yourself is primary, then healthy relationships with friends and family come naturally. I am a big proponent of healthy eating in the form of a whole-foods diet, along with a regular exercise routine to keep your body strong and to help you stay focused in life.

If you are looking for a primary care physician who understands the importance of a close doctor-patient relationship, then you found her. As a family physician, I want to know my patients personally, not just medically. We can work together to create personalized health goals for you, and I can help guide you to achieving them. I see patients of all ages and multiple generations of the same family. It gives me more insight into who you are and allows me to help give you more personalized care. My MDVIP-affiliated practice specializes in women’s health, chronic disease management, osteopathic manipulation, pediatrics and immunizations. Similar to concierge medicine practices, I also offer conveniences like same- or next-day appointments.

I’ve been in the Dayton/Cincinnati area for the past six years. Moving to West Chester is ideal, and I am thrilled to be serving my neighbors from northern Cincinnati to southern Dayton areas. I am affiliated with Kettering Health Network and Premier Health.

I am so glad I stayed with Dr. Ridge after Dr. Alter retired. She always listens to all I have to say & answers all of my questions very thoroughly. I never feel rushed with her. I trust her completely & know she will do her very best to take care of me & my health issues. I not only think of her as my doctor but also my friend. I have recommended her to my neighbor & will not…

When Doctor Alter retired i was worried that her replacement would not continue with her level of competence! Upon meeting Dr Ridge for the first time I was pleasantly surprised by her attentiveness to my needs! She had excellent listening skills and clearly was a problem solver! In follow up sessions she showed time and time again her ability to think out of the box! Her follow-up to…

Dr Ridge took over Dr Alters practice. Of course I didn't think that Dr Alter could be replaced. I will never forget the relationship that Dr. Alter and I had. The first time I met Dr Ridge we hit it right off. I sure pegged this one wrong. She knows her stuff, she listens to me and is such a caring DOCTOR. I am truly Blessed to have Dr. Ridge as only my Doctor but she is my friend. And oh…

Dr Ridge helped my mom and I - we received PRP treatments. Dr Ridge was friendly, knowledgeable, kind and thorough. She listened to our questions and walked us through each step. We felt very comfortable and well taken care of.by her and her staff. From the front desk, to the billing, to the nurse - she has a quality team. They are all personable and good at their areas of expertise. We are glad we found Elite Medicine and we will be going back to see them again.

I am a new patient who was very suddenly in need of a primary care doctor. An important prescription had expired. They were able to get me in within a couple of days from my first call and took great care of me. I am thankful they could see me so soon.

I’ve been going to Dr. Ridge for a couple of years now, first at a different practice and now here at Elite Medicine. She is a true professional and I trust no one else for the procedures I get. She listens to your concerns and pays extra attention to detail to make sure your goals are achieved. She goes above and beyond and I always leave their feeling and looking better than I did coming in. I can’t recommend her enough, and her staff is outstanding as well!

When Dr. Ridge took over the practice of my retiring physician, I was surprised at how quickly she learned about my medical issues and me. She truly listens and offers new opinions and outside-the-box advice. I'm completely happy with Dr. Ridge and her entire staff.

Dr. Ridge took over Dr. Alter's practice approximately a year ago, so this is still a getting to know/establishing a doctor patient relationship. I am very happy with things so far. Sherri, (front desk) remained, and Ali (Dr. Ridge's nurse) are both gems. I have no complaints and would recommend Dr. Ridge's practice.

Dr. Shelli Ridge is an amazing doctor who goes above and beyond any other. She is an amazing listener and gets to the root of each problem with a reasonable solution. She is great for any age range but especially young-mid adults. Her knowledge supersedes any other doctor I’ve ever been to. She has been my family doctor for over 7 years. I’ve followed her everywhere and will always continue to follow her. Establishing a comfortable relationship with your doctor is such a major component to feeling safe with them. Talking with Dr. Ridge is like talking to one of the Moms or one of the Girls!

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.
