Meet Catherine J. Schiano, DO


Over the past year, Dr. Tomlinson-Phelan and I have made the decision to change our style of practice to one that stresses wellness and prevention. We want to become partners with you to create individual, personalized, patient-centered healthcare. We will continue to effectively treat existing problems and prevent any new ones. We will also work with you at each and every step of the way to reach your health care goals.

I have been a family physician for over twenty-five years in the East Brunswick community. I have forged strong relationships with many specialists to help you with your unique health care needs. I have a strong interest in preventive medicine, diabetes and women’s health issues. I want to be your healthcare partner, insuring you a happy and healthy future.

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.
