MDVIP

MDVIP (pronounced em-dee-vee-eye-pee) is a national network of primary care doctors who focus on personalized preventive healthcare. The name MDVIP stands for Medical Doctors Value In Prevention.

Etymology

The term MDVIP is an acronym derived from Medical Doctors Value In Prevention. The company was founded in 2000 with the goal of providing a higher level of personalized healthcare.

Description

MDVIP operates on a membership model, where patients pay an annual fee for enhanced healthcare services. These services often include 24/7 access to a physician, same or next-day appointments, comprehensive annual wellness exams, and a focus on preventive care. MDVIP-affiliated physicians maintain a smaller patient panel, typically limiting their practices to no more than 600 patients, to ensure they can provide this personalized care.
