Stephen Thomas, MD, MBA

Meet Stephen Thomas, MD, MBA


As a family medicine physician, my philosophy centers around treating the whole person, not just their symptoms. I believe that each patient is unique and requires a personalized approach to their healthcare needs. I prioritize building strong relationships with my patients based on trust, empathy and open communication. By understanding their individual lifestyle, medical history and goals, I am able to provide more comprehensive and individualized care. This approach enables me to better treat not only the physical symptoms, but also the underlying causes, and to focus on preventive measures that promote long-term health.
 
I also believe in the importance of collaboration with my patients, encouraging them to take an active role in their healthcare. This involves empowering them with the knowledge and tools they need to make informed decisions, as well as providing ongoing support and guidance as needed. By working together as a team, we can develop a personalized treatment plan that is tailored to their unique needs, values and goals. This approach can lead to better health outcomes and an improved quality of life for my patients. I believe it is what sets personalized family medicine apart from other healthcare models.
 
My primary care practice is in Lawrenceville, Georgia, and currently serves Gwinnet County, Hall County, Barrow County, Walton County, Dekalb County, including the towns of Buford, Gainesville, Suwanee, Lilburn, Loganville, Dacula, Snellville and Stone Mountain. Similar to concierge medicine practices, I also offer conveniences like same- or next-day appointments.
 
I am a native Georgian, dad of three children and husband of 20 years. As a family, we enjoy traveling, cooking and playing sports.

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.
