About Vasant Patel, MD
As a primary care physician, my approach to your wellness is rooted in the belief that health is not reactive—it is proactive, intentional and built through daily choices. I believe that wellness goes beyond treating symptoms; it is about creating a stronger foundation that supports your body, mind, and lifestyle long before problems might arise.
My role is to guide, support and help you feel empowered as you work to build habits that are sustainable, personalized and aligned with your long-term well-being—so you can pursue living with strength, confidence and vitality. I encourage a proactive mindset: taking ownership of your health, listening to your body and making informed decisions before setbacks may occur.
Through personalized care and 25 years of experience in internal medicine, my goal is to support you at every stage of life. Together, we can focus on building healthier habits, working to prevent illness and creating a wellness plan that is designed to help you thrive for years to come.
I believe wellness is a journey, not a quick fix. My MDVIP-affiliated practice offers services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices. I offer the annual MDVIP Wellness Program, comprised of 18+ advanced screenings and tests that can help identify certain risk markers and issues that can be treated earlier, prevented or even reversed, so we can focus on more proactive care.

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.
