Decades of true care by Steve.
Humor.
When needed---no joking around.
Sometimes direct advice, sometimes compassionate advice.

Dr. Stephen Minton is a special doctor in so many ways, that many of hispatients will attest to. I guess if I had to pick one special moment, it would be one winter night when I called him about 930 at night at his home and told him about a stomach pain that I had that wasn’t that bad but I had a feeling I wouldn’t let me sleep. He said I needed to go to the emergency room and have it dealt with…

Dr Stephen Minton is a wonderful dedicated physician who really listens to your issues. He doesn’t judge your thoughts as right or wrong. He explains the medical reasoning so you understand. He tells you if he believes you might be on target or not and if not gives you his thoughts on why.
A true physician who really cares about his patients care as well as their feelings.

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.
