Prima Medicine Welcomes Dr. Mandana Shafai to Its Expanding Concierge Medicine Program in Northern Virginia

FAIRFAX, Va., March 31, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Prima Medicine is proud to announce the addition of Dr. Mandana Shafai to its esteemed team of medical professionals. Dr. Shafai joins the practice as a Concierge Medicine Physician, bringing with her over two decades of experience in internal medicine and a deeply personalized approach to patient care. Her arrival marks an exciting chapter in Prima Medicine's ongoing mission to elevate healthcare delivery through compassionate, relationship-driven medicine.

Dr. Shafai is a board-certified internist with a well-established reputation for clinical excellence, patient advocacy, and thoughtful communication. She holds a strong belief in the importance of preventive care, patient education, and a collaborative approach to wellness—all cornerstones of Prima Medicine's core philosophy. With the launch of her concierge medicine services, Dr. Shafai will be offering highly personalized, comprehensive care tailored to each patient's unique needs and lifestyle.

"Joining Prima Medicine feels like a natural extension of my personal and professional values," said Dr. Shafai. "I'm excited to be part of a practice that prioritizes quality over quantity, where we have the time and space to truly listen to our patients and guide them toward long-term health and wellness."

Dr. Shafai earned her medical degree from the George Washington University School of Medicine, where she also completed her residency in Internal Medicine. Over the years, she has cultivated a loyal patient following, admired for her meticulous attention to detail, warm bedside manner, and dedication to providing care that goes beyond routine checkups. Her patients often describe her as approachable, intuitive, and deeply committed to their well-being.

In her new role at Prima Medicine's Concierge Program, Dr. Shafai will offer a range of exclusive benefits to her patients, including:

• Same-day or next-day appointments
• Extended visits with ample time for discussion
• Direct communication via phone, text, or email
• Comprehensive wellness planning and chronic condition management
• Personalized coordination with specialists and other care providers
• Annual executive physicals and preventive health screenings

"We are thrilled to welcome Dr. Shafai to our practice," said Dr. Chethana Rao, founder of Prima Medicine. "Her clinical expertise and genuine passion for medicine make her an exceptional fit for our concierge program. She embodies everything we strive for—personalized care, professional integrity, and a holistic approach to health."

As healthcare systems across the country face increasing demands and reduced face-time between doctors and patients, concierge medicine offers a powerful alternative. This model empowers physicians like Dr. Shafai to invest more deeply in each patient's journey—building trust, reducing stress, and creating space for proactive health planning.

"Concierge medicine is about restoring the human connection in healthcare," Dr. Shafai explained. "It allows us to slow down, to listen, and to truly partner with our patients in every aspect of their care. That kind of relationship can transform lives."

Dr. Shafai's concierge practice will be based out of Prima Medicine's Fairfax location and is now accepting new patients. Enrollment is limited to ensure optimal access and individualized care.
