Dr. Ramaswamy

Meet Shreelakshmi Ramaswamy, MD


As your primary care physician, my main objective is to help ensure that your health is my priority. and you are given the personalized attention you deserve. In my MDVIP-affiliated practice, I have the time to truly listen to your concerns, perform a thorough physical exam, review your records and take a more proactive, individualized approach in an effort to help you achieve your goals. I believe in prevention and finding problems before they get out of hand. I look forward to developing a long-term relationship with you and your family.

My interests include geriatric medicine, preventive medicine, diabetes, hypertension and holistic medicine. As a female physician, I am also interested in women's health. Similar to conveniences often associated with concierge medicine practices, I also offer same- or next-day appointments. My primary care practice is located in Fairfax, Virginia. I am fluent in English, Hindi, Tamil and Kannada.

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 have recommended MDVIP to several of my own patients both in Virginia and Florida Sarasota area and they have been thrilled with the care they have received I highly . Recommended this concierge medical service. Dr Ramaswamy is highly skilled, has razor sharp diagnostic skills and it is a pleasure to have her as my personal physician.

I have been very pleased with Dr. Ramaswamy and her staff. I joined MDVIP under her predecessor, Dr. Joanne Crantz. The two doctors are quite different, but both have been extremely competent. Dr. Crantz related easily to her patients as she was aging with them. Dr. Ramaswamy is younger but brings much knowledge of the latest trends in elder care medicine.

Prior to Dr. Ramaswamy's coming to the MDVIP practice where I have received care since the office was opened, I was very attached to Dr. Robin Merlino, my doctor whom I had been seeing since soon after she began practicing medicine. We were about the same age, and I had considered her a friend. We shared many life events ( the birth of her children, her family vacations, our common experiences with pets), and she saw me through some of my most difficult times in my adulthood. When I learned of Dr. Merlino's impending retirement, I was concerned about my future medical care and how I would feel about a new doctor. I have had several positive interactions with Dr. Ramaswamy since she came to the practice, and I just completed my first annual physical with her. I have received very capable and competent care from Dr. Ramaswamy and her staff, and I told her during my physical that I felt that my concerns about changing doctors were no longer an issue. I believe that I will be able to talk with her about any health issues I have, and I have confidence in her ability to address these concerns.

I have had a run into a number of difficult and serious medical problems this past year. Dr. Ramaswamy has been responsive and available (at all hours). She has made herself available on short notice. I believe that I am indeed fortunate to have her as my PCP.

Comfort in knowing I can always reach/speak w/my MD. I don't always agree with what is ordered or suggested as my background is one of Nursing Research and Oncology. Received my Master of Science in Nursing Oncology, the Univ. of Wisconsin, Madison. I'm always interested in learning more each day.

Thanks for Hearing Me!

from Deb in VA • March 10, 2024
Dr. Ramaswamy is an extremely keen and patient listener. So often in any field, the person one has engaged to help you solve a problem listens briefly, makes a quick judgement, dismisses the rest of the conversation and takes over the telling! It's so common and predictable. First comes the body language; the head nodding (I understand); then the antsy body language (hurry up I know the Read more...

Dr Ramaswamy

from Betty in VA • March 10, 2024
What I love about Dr Ramaswamy is her calm demeanor. I am a stressor and she always knows how to help - no matter the issue. I am very comfortable discussing my health issues with her. If the health issue needs diagnostic tests, and in need of a specialist for further diagnoses and treatment, she stays involved.

Forever Grateful

from Elizabeth in VA • February 29, 2024
Dr. Ramaswamy, I will be forever grateful for the care you gave me during the month of December when my leg became infected after my Mohs Surgery. You made time in your schedule almost EVERY day in December to care for my infection!! You took phone calls from me on nights and weekends when I needed your advice of what to do next. I was so frightened and worried about the infection and each time Read more...

Her guidance was so reassuring. Whenever, I feel sick or have a problem, she's there for me and office time is always readily available. She is also very thorough in her assessments and I feel that her advice is Read more...
