Reviews from the web

Now, It is reassuring that I have a doctor who knows me, cares about me, responds to me, and has the time to meet with and counsel me when I need him. In my opinion, Wedmd should be the future of medicine. Funny though, it reminds me of primary care as it was practiced in the 1950's when our family doctor came to our home when I had the measles.








AAH, the “good ole days” have returned! Thank you Dr. Phelan and Melissa!

His staff are always friendly and professional.

My concerns are addressed as well as my opinions are taken into consideration which is also important to me.
Dr. Phelan and his are great. I have nothing but positive things to say regarding his practice.

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.
