Dr. Shapiro

Meet Scott Shapiro, MD, PhD


Over the years, I have treated patients with complex internal medicine and cardiac conditions, and these experiences have led me to the strong belief that the most effective kind of medical care is prevention. Hence, my practice philosophy has evolved into a proactive, collaborative approach to wellness. The MDVIP practice model enables the time and structure to effectively carry out this philosophy. I am passionate about providing the highest quality, patient-centered clinical care.

After completing my undergraduate studies at Washington University in St. Louis, I received both my MD and PhD from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine. The majority of my postgraduate training was at Columbia University Medical Center in New York. After completing an internal medicine residency, I remained on faculty at Columbia for a year where I served as a chief resident in the Department of Medicine. I completed a general cardiology fellowship at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City before returning to Columbia for a fellowship in cardiac electrophysiology.

My practice is located in Chevy Chase, Maryland, walking distance from the DC Metro Friendship Heights stop. 24 hour coverage and same-day appointments are tenets of my practice model. I have hospital privileges at Suburban Hospital, Sibley Memorial Hospital and George Washington University Hospital, where I am an Assistant Professor of Medicine. I have been named as a Top Doctor in Washingtonian Magazine since 2014.

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.

Dr. Shapiro Saved My Life The First Time I Met Him

from Ellen in MD • February 10, 2024
I was recovering from a hip revision surgery just when Dr. Shapiro was starting in the practice of my cardiologist, who was retiring. I was home from rehab and feeling awful - exhausted, not thinking clearly, staying in bed most of the day, and my sons were pleading with me to call the doctor. I knew that the "new guy" was there on certain days of the week, so I wanted to wait until I Read more...

My doctor saved my life

from Kathryn in MD • January 17, 2024
In 2018, I experienced heartburn and ended up in the ER. I reached out to my doctor. Scott Shapiro, so he could know what was happening. I shared with him that the hospital staff said I had a heart attack and that I would be kept over the weekend, and undergo further tests on Monday.
