About Sunny Sharma, MD, DipABLM

I believe that the key to treating disease is to help patients work toward preventing it in the first place. My passion for primary care comes from building bonds with my patients, as I hope they will look at me as an extension of their family. In today’s overwhelmed healthcare system, patients may experience a one-size-fits-all approach and feel there is little time to build connection with their physicians. 

MDVIP enables me to practice medicine with the approach I believe patients deserve. I  have more time in my MDVIP-affiliated practice, which helps me to form closer relationships with my patients and help facilitate a level of trust and comfort that I think is difficult to find in a traditional practice. As a board-certified lifestyle medicine physician, I take a personalized, preventive approach, which I believe may benefit patients not only in the short term but also decades down the line. 

My MDVIP-affiliated practice offers services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices. I enjoy customizing nutrition plans, detailing exercise regimens and helping tailor action plans to each individual patient to support their unique needs and goals. 

In addition to preventive measures, I also offer conveniences, such as same or next-day appointments with minimal waiting. My patients enjoy the convenience of being able to contact me directly during and after hours for more urgent needs. I work with and can refer you to trusted Ascension Medical Group specialists and sites of care.

I feel the opportunity to positively impact my patients is a privilege, and I am honored to offer patient-centered medicine and preventive care with the MDVIP experience.

Dr Sharma has been my doctor for several years and I have been so satisfied with him. He is always professional and takes time to discuss my concerns; I never feel rushed. He has done back injections and an ablation which really helped my back pain. I am so glad I found him.

Dr. Sharma really made me feel heard and cared for while I dealt with a frustrating back issue for 6-8 months. After getting diagnosed by him and referred to a very skilled physical therapist, I’m so happy to say I’m finally on the mend! He’s very warm and even took time to answer questions about my grandma’s back.

As the spouse of a person who has experienced chronic back pain for years, I can say once he started seeing Dr. Sharma, we have both been happier. Dr. Sharma is so knowledgeable, discusses treatment options, and is genuinely thrilled for the patient when they return for follow up and can report improvements in their condition. If something doesn’t work, he doesn’t give up, he offers more options so the patient can live their best life! If I could give more stars than 5 to this review, I would!

I went to Dr Sharma with spinal stenosis of the L4-L5. During our initial visit, Dr Sharma's listened to my concerns, needs and goals. He truly is a DR who puts the best interest of the patient first.

Dr Sharma not only gave me hope for recovery, he provided a path to recovery before (pre-op chiropractor and physical therapy treatments ), during (the injection) and after(post-op treatments and follow up) which I am forever grateful.

My experience was amazing, Dr Sharma was very professional, explained, allowed me to ask questions, was honest, and remained focus on my care and well-being the whole process. The results are life changing as I now can continue to do the things that I love, my grandchildren, gardening, walking ect...Nurse Rita was a great asset with her care and concern. I am grateful for the Spine clinic. Was given referral for continued care to maintain my renewed health.

Dr. Sharma and his staff are great. I have seen him a couple of times and each time he is patient while he listens to my ailments and he is always prepared to discuss options for treatment, if necessary. I would SHOUT from the rooftops recommending Dr. Sharma and his staff. They make you feel comfort the moment you walk in until the moment you leave.

Dr Sharma did a great job of getting my back healthy. After other doctors many shots in my back, he performed a procedure that has made a world of difference. Whereas before, I would experience pain after doing strenuywork, I only experienced soreness but he explotas I do more, soreshould subside.

Very nice, great bedside personality and he called afterwards personally to check on me.

Dr. Sharma performed kyphoplasty on my husband’s L5 which fractured as a result of a fall. The L5 was continuing to fracture. Husband had the procedure done on an outpatient basis. Lumbar pain is gone. Our experience with Dr. Sharma and UTSW was extremely efficient. Thank you, Dr. Sharma.

Dr Sharma is an extremely talented pain management professional. He has now performed the second of two planned lower lumbar Radio Frequency Ablation procedures which has restored my ability to live pain free. I highly recommend Dr Sharma, his staff and the entire UT Southwestern system for anyone who is need of medical care.

Frequently Asked Questions

MDVIP-affiliated physicians use the Wellness Program Plus to help prevent little things from becoming big things – working to help patients enjoy life and be healthier. Those who value their health will appreciate having a closer doctor-patient relationship. Because MDVIP-affiliated physicians have smaller practices, they have more time for you, so you can receive the individualized care and service you deserve. Physicians offering the Plus program have a different set of testing to choose from than physicians in the traditional program; this testing looks at additional health risks. Plus doctors also use an advanced cognitive testing system to evaluate brain health and offer a medication review program.

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.

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.
