Dr Kopjas has been taking care of my husband and I for several years before he joined MDVIP. He has always been good about getting tests that we need and is very thorough when explaining the results. He is definitely a dedicated physician and we appreciate both he and his staff. We feel like he is able to give us much better care being a MDVIP physician.

Testimonials from patients of Dr. Kopjas
I have very frequent migraines. He's always open to give prescriptions for whatever works for me to ease the pain and give quality of life. Quality is so essential when dealing with a special needs child that changed drastically in high school and has never overcome that change.
I've had the pleasure to be a patient with father, then son. The relationship is relaxed and open to my needs. It's very difficult to find a doctor willing to deal with my needs, as well as spouses and especially a psychiatrist for our special needs son.

I have been a patient of Dr. Tibor Kopjas for many years. It was Dr. Kopjas that recognized the problem in one of my lungs that he suspected was cancerous.

Dr Kopjas and annual physical found major heart problem, which we corrected. Will be forever thankful.
My husband was the first patient of Dr. Tibor Kopjas. Increasing signs of dementia made my husband's visits difficult but Dr. Kopjas always treated him with dignity and respect. I was not yet an official patient at that time but the doctor saw me on the same day that I had a severe reaction to a drug that I had been taking for years. He immediately identified the culprit and… See more
