Meet Jeffrey D. Esslinger, MD


My passion as a primary care physician is to provide you with highly personalized care and attention while employing my philosophy of "common sense" medicine. 

In my MDVIP-affiliated practice, I am able to see patients for same-day or next-day appointments, which can minimize trips to urgent care and emergency rooms, thereby saving time and money. In addition, there is very little waiting in my office, which gets you back to your life as quickly as possible. 

It’s important to me that my patients feel “connected” to their doctor, and I’m reachable through email, phone and texting (when appropriate) after hours and on weekends for their urgent health issues. A significant portion of my time with patients is dedicated to helping them improve their health through lifestyle changes, with the goal of minimizing medications, unnecessary testing and hospitalizations. I utilize the newest concepts in medicine to enhance the care I provide, including advanced preventive testing as well as seminars and classes to educate patients about their health.

My internal medicine practice is located in Cartersville, Georgia, and currently serves Bartow, Cherokee, Cobb, Gordon and Polk counties, including the towns of Cartersville, Acworth, Kennesaw, Rome, Dallas, Canton and Woodstock. We focus on wellness and preventive care in addition to all aspects of primary care. I am affiliated with Cartersville Medical Center.

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.
