Dr. Pearce

Meet Tom Pearce, MD


Much like I have called on you to look at and change the stressors in your life, I knew deeply over the last year that I really needed to get off of the healthcare treadmill and back to the real practice of medicine. My passion as a family medicine physician is to provide you with personalized healthcare with an emphasis on prevention and wellness. In my MDVIP-affiliated practice, you will be treated as if you are a member of my family in a warm and welcoming atmosphere where you will benefit from my education, expertise, renewed focus, compassion and understanding. Similar to concierge medicine practices, I also offer conveniences like same- or next-day appointments that start on time. 

I am affiliated with Addison Gilbert and Beverly hospitals. As your private doctor who takes time to know you and your health, it is important for me to know if you are hospitalized so I can assist with your care when appropriate and be there for you when you need me most. My primary care practice currently serves Gloucester, Rockport, Manchester and Essex.

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.

I have been w/ Dr. Pearce over a quarter century. He is knowledgeable, takes time to answer questions, and is genuinely interested in one's health--not just understanding what is wrong, but also actively giving input for healthy living. I'm totally happy with and thankful for Dr. Pearce.

NEW: Thirty years now, and would not even THINK of changing doctors.

Dr. Pearce is the top of the pyramid when it comes to primary care docs. He is attentive, informative, and truly cares. I have never left an appointment or ended a phone call without understanding the plan for my health and I always have my questions answered. He is what a primary care should be.

Dr Pearce is a knowledgeable, empathetic and professional doctor. He spends time with you and fully explains and educates you about your medical issues, large and small. He is a doctor you can trust completely. Your medical care is in excellent hands. He has been our doctor for almost 40 years and we are lucky to have him.

This has been a totally satisfactory experience. It’s the closest thing since growing up with a family doctor living down the street in a small town in Iowa: very personal, like a member of the family.

I have been extremely happy with all my interactions with Dr. Pearce. He is patient, thorough, empathetic, and a good listener. I never feel rushed which is important to me. Doctors these days unfortunately make you feel as if they have little time for you, which I’m sure is not their fault. But it makes you feel insignificant and unimportant when you feel they need to rush off to the next patient. I have enjoyed great health up till now. But since I am now in my 60’s, things are cropping up that need to be figured out. I feel Dr. Pearce is now the right doctor for me at this turning point in my life. Because I need someone who will listen and dig for answers not just give me a pill. I believe Dr. Pearce wants to help me achieve that same goal.

Dr. Thomas Pearce has been my Doctor for as long as he's been practicing on Cape Ann. I remember my first appointment with Dr. Pearce as such a positive experience. I always found myself apologizing to a new doctor, when I was self diagnosing. I went to that first appointment and started to apologize and he replied, "Please don't apologize, I'm not God, you live in your body and know best what's going on." Hence, a great Doctor/Patient relationship was born. I trust his advice completely.

Testimonials from patients of Tom Pearce, MD

"A Phone Call away"

from Judy in MA • February 21, 2024
Many years ago, my husband and I tried to become patients of Dr. Tom Pierce, but his patient list was full, probably overfull. In recent years, we have needed medical advice or treatment more frequently and realized that our then Family Doctors were just not available. If a situation arose where we needed to see a Doctor, often our doctors were full for that day. We were shunted to the ER, which Read more...
