A New Standard of Personalized Care

The MDVIP model focuses on maintaining smaller patient panels, allowing for not only more time spent with each patient but also an emphasis on preventive measures and chronic condition management. This model prioritizes longevity and well-being by addressing health issues before they escalate.

Dr. Mortel shared her philosophy, stating, "Building a trusting doctor-patient relationship is essential for effective healthcare. The MDVIP model, coupled with my expertise as a geriatrician, allows me to combat age-related illnesses and manage existing conditions collaboratively with my patients."

Comprehensive Wellness Through MDVIP

Patients enrolling in these practices benefit from the MDVIP Wellness Program, which offers an annual health assessment inclusive of advanced diagnostic tests and screenings.
