About Tejal Shah, MD

As an internal medicine doctor for well over a decade, I believe that a collaborative approach to treatment between my patients, their families and other physicians can lead to favorable outcomes. I know that each patient is different—you have unique health issues, perspectives and concerns. As your personal MDVIP-affiliated physician, I will strive to understand your perspective and use my experience and compassion to give you individualized care.

I also believe being proactive is important and, I have a passion for preventive healthcare so that we can help prevent health issues before they arise. I have practiced hospital‐based medicine for much of my career and understand the importance of diagnosing acute illnesses and developing personalized treatment plans. This includes working with specialists and being the “quarterback” of your medical team, as well as focusing on chronic illnesses such as cardiovascular, diabetes and thyroid disease.

Similar to concierge medicine practices, I also offer conveniences like same‐ or next‐day appointments. I am affiliated with Houston Methodist Hospital and serve the Houston area.

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.
