Meet Barry Schumer, MD
My philosophy of practice mandates equal attention be paid to patient education, patient treatment, and patient peace of mind. Because the connection between mind and body has been repeatedly proven, gaining peace of mind for my patients is a crucial component of my care. My goal is for my patients to feel more secure and empowered when they leave my office than when they arrived. Achieving this goal requires more time with patients, not less - and cannot be rushed, cannot be hurried, and must be scripted solely based on patient need. I strongly believe that the amount of time required for this type of care is simply "as much as it takes" - and nothing less.

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.

Testimonials from patients of Barry Schumer, MD
He always seems to have time for his patients and is always there.
from Ruth and Tom in KY • March 1, 2018
We entered Dr. Schumer's practice upon recommendation from another physician that he doesn't meet with you with one hand on the doorknob! We found that to be true, so we continued on when he began a concierge practice. He always seems to have time for his patients and is always there. We have had two occasions to contact him at home during the evening and once at 5:30 AM while he Read more...
