Jennifer L. Claves, MD

Meet Jennifer L. Claves, MD


My passion as a board certified internist is to provide you with more personalized healthcare. In my MDVIP-affiliated practice, you will be treated as if you are a member of my family. I believe healthcare should be collaborative, and I hope my staff and I have created a warm and welcoming atmosphere where we can all work together as a team.

In my 20-plus years of practice, I realize the importance of preventive medicine and how individual patient needs can vary. My partnership with MDVIP allows me not only to focus on preventive medicine, but also to help personalize it to your unique history and situation. 

I am an attending physician affiliated with Main Line Health. Having practiced in the Bryn Mawr area for my entire career, I have a large network of specialists to whom I can refer in the three major health systems in Philadelphia. Advocating for you when it comes to specialty care, or even hospital care should you need it, is something on which I pride myself. My primary care practice serves the Philadelphia suburbs.

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.
