Not a specific event—but after 92 years and being the patient over that time of at least 100 doctors (10 now), I have never had a doctor as thorough, as promptly responsive, and as consistently effective as Dr. Theodore LI. Extraordinary! In short, THE BEST.
I have been a patient of Dr. Theodore C. M. Li’s for over 30 years, both as a member of MD VIP and when he was in private practice. My continued relationship with Dr. Li has been premised on his dedication to providing me with his best input for my health issues and always listening to my concerns. He is extremely thoughtful in analyzing a problem and thinks out of the box. As an example,… See more
A few months ago I contracted Dengue and Dr. Li was extremely helpful, responsive and kind physician. He was kind enough to come to my home when I was in serious discomfort. He was with me at the Emergency Room at Sibley hospital in Washington, D.C. He stayed in close contact every day while I was recuperating for several weeks. I have dealt with many physicians over the last several… See more
I cannot imagine a finer primary care doctor, anywhere, anytime. Dr. Li is always there for me, being sure that if I need attention from specialists, I am sent to and cared for immediately by the finest doctors. I am 86 years old, physically active, still at work in my profession, and looking forward to many more years just like those passed, thanks in quite large part to the superb care Dr… See more
My wife had undergone open-heart surgery at Washington Hospital Center in November 2023. A week after she came home but
decidedly experiencing some problems with medicines. Dr. Theodore C. M. Li was always available through an email or call
to answer questions. There were multiple health issues we came to understand that were outside of the surgery but because of the

I have been a patient of Theodore Li, MD, for more than 30 years. In addition to being an outstanding diagnostician, he is an enormously empathetic human being. I am very medication sensitive. From the very first time I saw him (after begging my way into his practice), he understood what I was enduring in terms of overdosing and improper prescriptions from other physicians. In his… See more
Dr. Li has been my physician for at least thirty-six years. A friend who was Dr. Li's colleague at Georgetown University hospitals recommended him. We were impressed with the thoroughness of Dr. Li's examinations, but even more by his ability to explain to us the significance of what he found and his guidance for good health. Dr. Li never hesitated to send us to specialists, and… See more
Dr. Theodore LI has been my primary care doctor since 1996. His informed, attentive and responsive care has been a critical part of my health care. He has been a coordinator of my specialist, incorporating their care into my overall treatment, always aware of what other physicians were prescribing, and communicating with them if he had his own view. Since he joined MDVIP, time spent in any… See more
I cannot speak more highly of Dr Li. My husband and I flew from India to the US. While in India my husband contracted dengue of which we were unaware. On the long flight to the US the situation worsened. By the time we reached the USA, my husband had a high fever, was unable to walk and felt very weak. Dr Li sent us for some tests but before the results came my husband's health worsened… See more
Dear Dr. Theodore Li,
Today we celebrate “you” on Doctors’ Appreciation Day! And I personally wish to thank you for the many years in which you have helped me to maintain my overall good health (for I believe nearly 20 years). On this day, I also want to take this opportunity to express my deep gratitude to you—for not only your vast knowledge of internal medicine—but for your medical… See more
