Meet Richard M. Rayner, MD


As a family physician, I view good health as a product of an individual’s body, mind, spirit and the environment all working together optimally. I know that an excellent doctor-patient relationship is based on mutual trust, and I respect and enjoy patients that come from all seasons and walks of life. As I develop a relationship with my patients, I create a personalized healthcare plan that involves those different factors with the hope of moving each person from their starting point to a better place. With me functioning as your private physician, we can aspire together to improve your health now and plan for a healthy future. 

I have been in the Harrisburg and Central Pennsylvania medical community since 1996, with experience in medical education, as well as private practice. In my private practice, I enjoy managing a panel of primary care issues including diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, obesity, anxiety and depression. Similar to concierge medicine practices, I also offer conveniences like same- or next-day appointments that start on time. I put a strong emphasis on prevention and have an approach to healthcare that involves using wise lifestyle decisions, fitness and nutrition when addressing current and future medical needs. Due to my longevity in the area, I have established excellent professional relationships with local specialists with whom I consult when specialty care is needed. I have no direct affiliation with a hospital system; however, if inpatient care is needed, I do work with the hospitalists who care for my patients.

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.

Above and Beyond!

from Evangela in PA • March 13, 2024
Dr. Richard Rayner took a call from us while he was on vacation. He didn't ignore us or send us to someone else to help us. He also called in a prescription for my medical issue at that time. This was very special especially since we were new in town and didn't have access to an urgent care. we love him, he treats us like family!

from Sam in PA • January 18, 2024
In January, 2019, my wife and I were about to head to the airport from our hotel in Baltimore (we live an hour an half away from the BWI airport) for a flight to Aruba. While I had some abdominal pain and flu like symptoms, my thoughts were that relaxation on the beach would solve everything.

from Christine in PA • March 12, 2020
I first met Dr Rayner at the Aspire Care walk in urgent care. He treated my issue then began to review my previous visits. He said he noticed my BP was up a bit and asked me why I was on several of my medicines. As I left I thought. Wow!
he was interested in much more of my health than the problem I went for that day Shortly thereafter I asked if he was taking new patients and they said Read more...
