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.

I was in New Mexico this winter and called for Dr. Fentriss on a Sunday afternoon.

from Marilyn in TN • February 27, 2014
I was in New Mexico this winter and called for Dr. Fentriss on a Sunday afternoon. Within an hour she had called me back and upon hearing my problem, promptly diagnosed the possible ailment and gave a simple solution. She is always quick to get to the core of a problem, and has a simple answer, which undoubtedly is correct.

I can't imagine having another doctor.

from Andrea in TN • February 11, 2015
I can't imagine having another doctor. Dr. Fentriss is warm and caring and concerned about my well-being. Her staff is wonderful as well and it is so nice to have a human answer the phone when you call rather than a computer. Dr. Fentriss and her staff are always willing to help and I am able to see her when I need her rather than a couple of weeks later. I am so glad that she joined MDVIP. Read more...
