My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...

As your private doctor, it is my passion to practice personalized healthcare focused on prevention and wellness. I believe that great care is built on great relationships. First and foremost, it is my goal to offer a warm, welcoming and unhurried environment where you can share your concerns so that, together, we can overcome challenges and optimize your health. I enjoy spending time with patients, learning about their lives, understanding their worries and treating their conditions. Care in my primary care practice is personal and proactive with a strong emphasis on prevention. This approach helps patients achieve long-term and short-term health goals. My patients benefit from my well-established relationships with expert colleagues, with whom I work closely to coordinate specialty care and help manage chronic conditions.

My passion now, as an MDVIP family practice physician is to provide you personalized healthcare with an emphasis on prevention and wellness. My MDVIP-affiliated practice offers services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices. In a warm welcoming atmosphere, I will treat you as if you are family. In medicine, the diagnosis is made with the history, sharpened by a precise skilled interview, and then the diagnosis is confirmed by the exam, therefore your medical history is a priority.

In addition to being a family medicine physician, I have special interests in infectious diseases, (especially tick-borne disease), kidney disease and heart disease. I feel challenged and qualified in the management of diabetes and hypertension. I spend time daily working with patient’s concerns about nutrition, sleep, exercise and stress management.

I am affiliated with Roger Williams Hospital and, for the past 21 years, I have primarily cared for patients in North Scituate, Rhode Island. However, I now see patients in many surrounding towns, including Smithfield, North Smithfield, Chepachet, Pascoag, Johnston, Providence, Warwick, Coventry, Foster, Exeter, Cranston and North Kingston, as well as those from Danielson, Connecticut and Attleboro and Boston, Massachusetts. I have also had several local patients move away and yet they travel as much as 100 miles to continue to be part of my exciting practice.

About the Practice/Practice News

Telemedicine Option: I am also using telemedicine visits to stay connected with my patients when they are unable to see me in the office. It is easy to do, and we have maintained our momentum with preventive health goals and chronic care during difficult times.

When Dr. Crawford told me he was changing his practice to MDVIP honestly I joined just to retain my patient status with him. Flip forward a few years and I relocated to the midwest and with healthcare for many becoming a nurse at the local pharmacy with No trusted relationship like I have experienced by having the same physician for years.

from Georgiann in RI February 12, 2024 for Kim Jay Crawford, MD

Our PCP, Dr. Kim J. Crawford has been my husband's M.D. for about 24 years, and mine for over 15 years. He always listens to us carefully and fully, never do we feel rushed or dismissed. He has spotted dangerous conditions calling for immediate hospitalization on two occasions, and treated me for Lyme disease after a visit to an E.R. dismissed me as "dehydrated". Not only is Dr… See more

Dr. Crawford has been my Doctor for many years. He has been very patient with me during my drinking days. Still, he put up with my nonsense and made sure I was taken care of. Since then he has been always there when I need him. He is so nice and listens to his patients. I really hope he is not retiring in the near future. I really depend on him. Thank you.

In December 2017 Dr. Crawford during my annual checkup disclosed to me that my AC1 was 6.1 and that I had pre-diabetes. I was 63 years old at the time, 6’ 1” and weighed a little over 200 pounds. All my life I ate whatever I wanted and I was always a big eater. In my previous check-ups my A1C’s were inching up by I chose to ignore them. However this time maybe because my brother and father… See more

I came under Dr. Crawford's care several years ago when I "aged out" of military health care. I didn't want a "group" arrangement for care, did enough of that for over 40 years. I met with Dr. Crawford and immediately knew this was the right choice. He reminded me of my doctor in rural Ohio as a kid many years ago. I knew this was a man I could trust and whose… See more
