What Members Are Saying

I have two stories to share. Dr George literally saved my life twice. A nagging side pain finally drew my attention and I made an apt and was given a same day apt. She listened to my symptoms and pushed in my right side when I nearly jumped off the table. She immediately sent me to the ER and I had an emergency appendectomy within an hour. The next incident a couple years later brought me to her office with a fever, malaise and what I believed to be a painful hemorrhoid. She was baffled with my symptoms initially and asked to check the hemorrhoid- she once again sent me to the ER - this time with an abscess. I didn’t realize how sick I was- I had sepsis from waiting so long for treatment. She contacted an excellent colleague surgeon who brought my blood pressure up with antibiotics and fluids prior to surgery. I was close to death but thanks to Dr George I’m still on this earth counting my blessings- one of whom is Dr George! Thank-you and God bless you!

To a compassionate and inspiring Doctor, Dr. Mary George. From the first moment I walked into her office, I knew that Dr. George was a doctor I could trust in any situation and would give me the best medical help. In a world where empathy often feels like a rare gem, Dr. George, you shine brightly as a beacon of compassion and understanding. Your unwavering support and encouragement were so welcome as I went through my traumatic kidney cancer experience and then as you started me on my weight loss journey. Through your gentle words and genuine concern, you offered medical expertise and a warm embrace of empathy that eased the burden of my struggles. Your encouragement gave me the strength to persevere, even when the road ahead seemed daunting and filled with obstacles. You helped me see beyond the numbers on the scale, recognizing the complexities of my journey and the challenges I faced daily. Your belief in my ability to overcome those challenges empowered me to take control of my health and make positive changes. But you didn’t stop there. You equipped me with the tools and knowledge I needed to succeed, providing practical guidance and support every step of the way. Your approach to wellness always goes beyond prescriptions and treatments and includes nurturing my body and spirit. Today, as I continue on this challenging yet rewarding path of weight loss, I carry the invaluable lessons you’ve imparted and the strength you’ve instilled in me. You have shown empathy and empowerment that will forever be etched in my heart and is a testament to your impact on my life. Because of your instruction and guidance, I have continued to apply the principles you gave me these last three years and have lost over 70 pounds. I can’t tell you the difference that I feel mentally and physically. I'm looking forward to spending many more energetic years with my loving husband, my kids, their spouses, and my 14 grandchildren. My activity level has increased, and my self-esteem is improving each step of the way. Thank you for being more than just a healer of bodies, but a healer of souls. Your kindness, empathy, and unwavering dedication to your patients have made all the difference for me and, I’m sure, for countless other patients you work with. I am forever grateful to have found a caring doctor like you! THANK YOU MDVIP! With deepest appreciation and admiration,

Meet Mary K. George, MD

My passion as an internal medicine physician is to provide you with personalized healthcare. I truly enjoy the practice of medicine in its purest form. As a result of my 24 years of practice, I have realized that a robust doctor-patient relationship is fundamental to a successful practice. As an MDVIP-affiliated primary care physician, I have more time to develop close relationships with my patients, carefully review records and perform comprehensive exams. Being your private doctor, we can work as a team to formulate a wellness plan that will help you achieve your health goals.

Maintaining health and wellness, rather than treating disease, is my greatest goal. My primary care practice is located in Hoffman Estates, Illinois and focuses on women’s health, integrative health and preventive care, in addition to all aspects of internal medicine. With my additional certification in obesity medicine, I am well equipped to help my patients battle a disease that is a major risk factor for other chronic diseases such diabetes, osteoarthritis, hypertension and coronary artery disease. Similar to conveniences often associated with concierge medicine practices, I also offer same- or next-day appointments that start on time. I will work with you at each step to assist you with making informed decisions toward achieving your health goals – whether it's running your first 5K, improving your nutrition, formulating an exercise program, reducing the use of medications, or just living life to its fullest.

As one of the few female internists serving the Northwest suburbs of Chicago offering this personalized healthcare approach, I am offering social visits to my patients when hospitalized at Alexian Brothers Hospital in Elk Grove Village and St. Alexius Hospital in Hoffman Estates. I am also pleased to offer home visits as an added benefit to patients that qualify. I look forward to empowering and partnering with my patients to achieve their health and wellness goals. I love to see their happiness when they realize that they have succeeded.

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.

Testimonials from patients of Mary K. George, MD

I am so impressed with Dr. Mary George as my Physician

from Rebecca • October 7, 2019

I am so impressed with Dr. Mary George as my Physician. I have never had this experience before even in MDVIP itself. After being transferred to her as my primary doctor, I felt so much more at ease with my over-all care and felt confident that she was really managing my wellness plans.
