About Stephen D. Newman, MD, FACC
As a preventive cardiologist in Fort Worth and Weatherford, TX, my goal in my MDVIP-affiliated primary care practice is to partner with you in creating a personalized plan for lasting health. I believe medicine is both a science and an art – rooted in evidence but guided by listening, presence and compassion. Together, we can design a plan to help you as you work to reduce your risks, prevent heart and vascular disease, and slow disease progression where possible.
My approach is proactive, individualized and designed to help you thrive, not just survive. Over the decades, I have cared for patients across North Texas and remain committed to advancing both prevention and personalized care, especially heart care.
My special interests include:
• Preventive cardiology and working to minimize risk factors
• Hypertension (high blood pressure)
• Cholesterol and lipids
• Heart disease prevention and long-term risk reduction
• Integrative wellness for men and women, including nutrition, exercise, sleep and emotional well-being
I blend guideline-based cardiovascular medicine with an integrative, holistic approach to help patients as they pursue their goals of lasting wellness.
I am affiliated with hospitals across North Texas, including Baylor Scott & White Health, Medical City Fort Worth Hospital, and Texas Health Harris Methodist Hospital Fort Worth. This allows me to help advocate for your care when needed.
My practice offers services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices. I offer same- or next-day appointments, more time to spend together during visits, and an emphasis on preventive strategies and lifestyle medicine.
I see patients from Fort Worth, Weatherford, Aledo, and the greater North Texas region who want more than routine checkups. I aim to serve and support as a trusted partner in my patients’ heart health and longevity goals.

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.
