Meet Spencer Phillips, MD, FAAFP


I believe in you not only as a patient but also as a friend. I feel that a patient should not be treated as a geriatric or middle aged patient. Patient care should be individualized to achieve maximum wellness and vibrancy. I feel too often patients are made to feel old before their time, i.e. geriatric. Health and vibrancy can be achieved at any age.

Although I treat all age groups – pediatric, young adult, adult, women’s health and geriatric medicine, my ultimate goal is to maximize your wellness. I have a special interest in preventive medicine and personalized healthcare. I feel that prevention is the key to continual well-being. Our wellness program/executive physical has been ranked in the top 10 nationally. I have been privileged and humbled to be named the top family physician by Lancaster County Magazine nine times.

I have been a practicing, board-certified family physician in Lancaster County for over thirty years and have patients from all areas of South Central Pennsylvania – including York, Harrisburg, Reading, Ephrata, Quarryville and Lititz.

I make routine house calls on my patients and I see my patients when they are in the hospital. A few of the hospitals where I advocate for my patients are Lancaster General Hospital, Heart of Lancaster Hospital and Lancaster Regional Hospital. I look forward to serving you and your family.

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 do not approve generally of this MVIP plan because it is culturally racist. I have told Dr. Phillips this from the start. However, Dr. Phillips was one of my brightest students in my honors English classes in high school. He is a brilliant doctor and a caring person. With or without your program I would want no other medical doctor to care for me.

This is an outstanding medical practice! I am very appreciative of two physicians and their staff who provide excellent care that deals with today's health challenges as well as recommend approaches to help me avoid issues in the future. The entire nursing and administrative staff work well together and are very responsive. I am healthier and better informed on my relevant health issues because of the commitment to practicing good medicine, including attentive patient care.

Persistent dizziness - Dr. Phillips referred me to an ENT who then sent me to a very good Physical Therapist, who diagnosed and treated the problem. Thank you, Dr. Phillips for the referral.

I would first like an explanation to this request BECAUSE I received the exact
same survey approximately 4 to 5 weeks ago. I took the survey and wrote what I felt was a very nice letter about something that Dr. Phillips did when I was hospitalized. Why this repetition? It appears you DO NOT read these surveys. I was planning to pay both my wife's and my yearly MDVIP tomorrow (3/18/20). Your record keeping appears to be quite shoddy to say the least. I will contact Dr. Phillips and inform him of this
situation.

Dr. Phillips is both knowledgeable and friendly. I am a MDVIP patient and it is an AWESOME service for both myself and my children. It seems like kids get sick at the most inconvenient times and it's never a bother for him. He sees us on weekend and evenings and as soon as possible. My parents as older people have MDVIP and they couldn't be happier. My mother battled a very aggressive form of brain cancer and Dr. Phillips provided support even though she had moved on to specialists. He truly cares for his patients and I couldn't think of trusting my families health care to someone else.

Dr. Phillips is the epitome of the dedicated family practice physician. What more can I say?

I have been a patient of Dr Phillips since he took over from Dr Weber. What a great physician he is, and today his daughter Dr Kelly saw me for my MDVIP part B and all I can say is the practice has a bright future. Dr Kelly is thorough, knowledgeable and solutions driven - a chip off the old block. Mom Andrea, you raised her well! If you are looking for a family physician practice that will not disappoint, Dr Spencer Phillips and Dr Kelly Phillips combined with MDVIP are the ticket.

I had an active, awesome career as the CEO of a credit union. When I retired 10 years ago, I wasn’t sure what I was going to do with my time.

Just days after signing with MVDIP I had open heart surgery. Dr Philips was at my bedside each evening. He would read my chart and explain where I was in the recovery process. He also would tell jokes. These visits truly kept my spirits up.

MDVIP Doctor Spencer Phillips had always had 'family" medical care in his practice. In May of 2021 I had a slight stroke, so mild, that I was released after one day ; but the night I went to the City Hospital, Dr. Phillips appeared in the ER to sit with me, while I waited to be attended to. He had been at his church's worship service, when he received news of my going to the Read more...
