Meet James D. Quarles, MD


My goal is to be there for my patients when they need me. If they need to be seen in the clinic quickly, I will be there. If they are in the hospital, the nursing home or need me at their home, I will be there. I want to get back to the “old school” way of being a doctor, where the doctor is there on the other end of the phone when you need them. I want to be with my patients at every step of their life, and help them live longer, healthier lives.

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.

from Julia in KY • February 12, 2024
I had been a patient of Dr. Quarles before he became affiliated with MDVIP. When became a MDVIP physician, I became an MDVIP patient. After about two years, I decided to drop my membership.

I moved from Denver CO, where I practiced pediatric dentistry to Frankfort KY in 2017. I felt that the health care I received during my 40 years in Denver was excellent. I asked my friend, who was an internist in another city in Kentucky, for a good primary care physician in Frankfort. He suggested Dr. Quarles. After his thorough workup, Dr. Quarles referred me to a GI physician in Lexington Read more...

Always There

from Susan in KY • January 23, 2024
Dr. James D. Quarles is always there for me. It is very comforting to know if I need him he is ready to take my call, email or text.

I am so very glad that I switched to the MDVIP program and that Dr. Quarles Read more...

Lives up to his word!

from Robert C in KY • January 19, 2024
When I first signed up with Dr Quarles some 7 years or so ago he told me that I was only as far from him as my phone, he said that the only time he wouldn’t answer his phone was when he was in the shower! He has more than lived up to that he truly is interested in my total health care. I have called from many hundreds of miles and he has put me in touch with pharmacies and other healthcare Read more...
