About Tina Botelho, MD
I believe a healthy patient-physician relationship is essential to patient wellness. I also believe that wellness is a result of action, and action is powered by motivation. I find motivation is specific to the individual as is resistance. As an MDVIP-affiliated physician, I will personalize patient care with the added benefit of more time and greater study of scientific research and non-invasive testing to help us better determine genetic and biochemical risk factors. I will listen without judgment or haste, observe without discrimination and educate with factual information. It is my goal to help each patient realize their role in pursuit of better health. Together, you and I will institute a plan for lifestyle modification in lieu of synthetic medication where appropriate as well as review moments of failure, improve motivation and celebrate successes in this journey called “LIFE."

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.
