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.

Dr. Susan Baruch is an extraordinary physician. Her expertise, intelligence, sensitivity and commitment to personalized treatment is beyond anything I have every experienced. Dr. Baruch's careful, methodical research around different issues, make all of her thoughtful recommendations current and helpful. She always follows through with timely communication. Clearly, she is what I would call, the "top-of-the-food-chain!"

Dr. Susan Baruch has provided caring and comprehensive medical attention for three generations of my family. She treats me with respect and answers all my questions to the level of detail I need to feel confident. That combined with her knowledge of my family medical history leads me to place great trust in her personally and in the quality of her care.

I consider myself extremely fortunate to have Dr. Susan Baruch as my Primary Doctor. She is the best of the best.

I have been her patient long before 2003, when I became a member of MDVIP.

Dr. Baruch is emphatetic. She cares. She possesses a genuine passion for helping othes. She is compassionate, approachable, and available.

We are the perfect team, for Dr. Baruch treats me as an equal partner. We enjoy an excellent physician-patient communication. When she prescribes medicines, recommends treatment, or provides instructions, I strictly follow them.

The result: A happy, grateful, and energetic octogenarian patient.

God bless Dr. Baruch. She is the best!.
