Meet Stuart A. Shapiro, MD

As your personal physician, it gives me great pleasure to better serve your healthcare needs. My MDVIP-affiliated primary care practice focuses on wellness and prevention with a proactive approach. I feel strongly that engaging my patients and educating them about their health enables and assists with informed decision making.

I am board certified in family medicine and have a broad range of additional medical interests. Through my years of experience as a family practitioner, I have been devoted to treating patients with care and compassion, a philosophy that is affirmed by my affiliation with MDVIP. 

My medical assistants and I have earned exemplary recognition for our use of patient-centered, coordinated patient care processes from the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA).

The MDVIP model of practice helps me to offer more personalized healthcare; it helps develop closer doctor-patient relationships. I am also able to help formulate a wellness plan that is suited for you. Similar to concierge medicine practices, I also offer conveniences like same- or next-day appointments.

My practice is near West Houston, and patients come from a variety of locations, including Katy, Sugar Land, the Inner Loop, Spring Branch and Memorial areas, among others. I am a member of the Memorial Hermann healthcare network, enabling me to offer my patients a wide range of resources.

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.
