As MDVIP affiliates, Drs. Corinthia McLeroy, Alfredo Ermac and Kyle Fehlis maintain smaller practices, allowing them to spend more time with patients to focus on disease prevention and early detection, as well as help manage chronic conditions. The doctors provide other conveniences including same- or next-day appointments that last an average of 30 minutes and 24/7 physician availability. This is unlike traditional primary care practices, where high patient volumes often lead to delays in getting an appointment and long waits in the waiting room.
"My passion as an internal medicine physician is taking time with patients so that they feel heard and providing care that is approachable, informative and compassionate," said Dr. Corinthia McLeroy. "As one of few African-American female internists in Dallas offering individualized healthcare, I look forward to helping patients in the community prevent and manage chronic health conditions, such as hypertension and diabetes, as well as acute illnesses."
Dr. Alfredo Ermac in Houston said, "I went into medicine 25 years ago wanting to build relationships with my patients and to partner with them on their lifelong journey to optimal health. This has always been the cornerstone of my practice, and affiliating with MDVIP enables me to prioritize prevention and total wellness in a way that isn't possible within the time constraints of traditional primary care."
"I've always sought to take patient care beyond the prescription pad and to dive more deeply into each patient's individual health situation and the concerns they openly share with me," said Dr. Kyle Fehlis in New Braunfels. "Joining the MDVIP network provides the unhurried time we need to explore their history, review their comprehensive test results and develop a care plan that encourages healthier living and can help prevent avoidable illnesses and unnecessary medications."
Personalized Care
For an annual membership fee, patients receive the MDVIP Wellness Program, a comprehensive yearly health assessment that includes advanced diagnostic tests and screenings to give a more complete view of the patient's overall health. Using the results, physicians provide ongoing coaching and tools to help patients make healthier lifestyle choices, prevent disease and achieve their wellness goals.
Other benefits include the MDVIP Connect app and website, which allow patients to communicate with their doctor online, access personal health records and obtain meal plans, workout programs and other healthcare resources. Should an emergent need arise while a patient is traveling, physicians can help arrange care with a local hospital, pharmacy or doctor, which may include another MDVIP affiliate.
Proven Health Outcomes
Eleven peer-reviewed, published studies show that patients in MDVIP-affiliated practices have better health outcomes compared to those in traditional primary care practices, including:
- 79% fewer hospitalizations for Medicare patients, equating to $600 million savings in one year
- 72% fewer hospitalizations for commercially insured patients
- 40% more patients identified at risk for cardiovascular disease using advanced testing
