Dr. Rodriguez and Dr. Wilson have each opened an MDVIP-affiliated practice, which allows them to dedicate more time to each patient and provide proactive care, utilizing advanced screenings and diagnostic tests. These tools help them assess individual risk factors and create yearly wellness plans that address each patient's unique health requirements and goals.
On joining MDVIP, Dr. Brian Rodriguez said, "Growing up in Central Vermont and having practiced primary care in the area for more than a decade, I understand the importance and the trust patients place in their doctor, especially in a close-knit community like ours. Moving into the MDVIP model really enables me to build more solid relationships with patients, listen to their concerns and be their partner in health through all stages of life."
Dr. John Wilson said regarding his MDVIP partnership, "As a family medicine physician, I aim to treat each patient as a whole person – shaped by their experiences, values, culture and community. I want to know their stories, their family history and what they've been through. MDVIP makes this possible by giving us the time to get to know each other and unpack everything that is going on, which isn't feasible in a traditional practice where visits are limited to just 15 minutes."
Having a smaller practice size enables Dr. Rodriguez and Dr. Wilson to offer additional benefits to their patients, including:
- Same-day or next-day appointments
- 24/7 physician availability via phone
- Family plan in which children of adult patients can be seen for routine visits and sick care without any additional membership fee
- Coordination of care with specialists when needed
In-Depth Annual Wellness Program
Through an annual membership fee, patients receive a comprehensive yearly health assessment that includes advanced diagnostic tests and screenings to give a more complete view of their overall health. Using the results, Dr. Rodriguez and Dr. Wilson can provide personalized coaching and tools to help patients make healthier lifestyle choices, prevent disease and achieve their wellness goals.
Prevention Leads to Better Outcomes
Multiple studies have been published in peer-reviewed medical journals showing that patients in MDVIP-affiliated practices experience fewer hospitalizations and readmissions, visit urgent care centers and emergency rooms less often, and have better control of chronic diseases compared to patients in traditional practices. MDVIP patient satisfaction scores and annual membership renewals consistently exceed 90%.
