In my MDVIP-affiliated practice, I offer a unique service and provide complete healthcare for your entire family. I am honored that you have chosen me to be your family physician, and I will do my utmost to ensure that you receive optimal medical care.
I take every possible step to develop a personal relationship with all my patients, and I have a special interest in preventive medicine and education. I have been blessed with an excellent staff and a loving, supportive wife. I have over 40 years of experience and wisdom to help keep you healthy and provide a long partnership.

I offer experience not only in office-based medicine, but also have experience with newborn care, obstetrics, nursing home medicine, FAA flight physicals and osteopathic manipulation. I have developed relationships with many specialists in the area to help continuity of care in case a consultation is necessary.

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.
