We already have a shared vision…our personal patient-physician communication commences now! The very fact that you are reading this, shows your sincere interest in your health and wellness. We will work together toward taking this interest and weaving it into a proactive, preventive plan, for both the present and future. My health concept envisions an emphasis on “the whole person wellness” rather than treating individual parts of the body. I look forward to be able to take the time necessary to diagnose the root causes of your specific ailments. Being raised in the natural splendor of far-east Russia, I was exposed to many natural medicinal remedies handed down to us for generations. I feel fortunate to be able to combine this background with my more than 25 years of medical experience in allopathic, functional, and natural medicine to provide you with truly personalized integrative healthcare!

I wish I had met her earlier when I was younger. Thank you Dr. Borissova! 🥰🙏🏼💜
Medical massage therapist. I have Lyme disease,
Dr. Borrisava has researched and gone well beyond the call of duty to find the right approach to this very
Confusing and frustrating disease. She had the presence to have me tested for old Lyme. The day I was hospitalized with unusual symptoms, I urged the ER to call Dr Borrisava, and within 45 minutes she came to the ER, bringing the positive Lymes test results for old Lyme. If she had not done that, I would have been treated for the symptoms and not for the disease. I would not have gotten better at all. She researched and found Alina, which made an immediate difference for me, she arranged getting a little me free samples to help with the cost of Alina a new Lyme medication...( which is $6000.00 per month). She marries Alternative with Western Medicine approach to disease, which I appreciate more than she will ever know. Because of her approach, I have been able to keep my practice going, while fighting this disease,
For which I am very grateful. I am 70 years of age, and I love my work so much I choose not to retire as of yet. Dr Borrisava has allowed me to be able
To do just that, continue to work, help others and fight the Lymes Disease at the same time.. truly a blessing!!!!!
Extremely thorough which helps to keep us healthy.

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.
