Meet David J. Hobbs, MD


Being an MDVIP physician helps me fulfill my long-term goal: to give individualized and in-depth care to my family of patients. To me, my patients are my family. Concentrating on a fewer number of patients allows me - and them - the time for examination, dialogue and healthcare planning in a more relaxed environment. I also am delighted to provide an in-place network of highly ranked specialty centers.

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 David J. Hobbs, MD

Dr. David Hobbs

from irene in FL • March 15, 2020
Dr. Hobbs has been my physician forever but in the last almost ten years with MDVIP. I so look forward to his efficient testing, and then spending quality time with him reviewing my "numbers." Dr. Hobbs visited me in the hospital twice, once when I had a kidney problem and another a TIA. He is so professional, so concerned, and so easy to talk to. He employs the wonderful Michelle who makes it so Read more...

In Appreciation of Dr. Hobbs

from Ernest in FL • March 13, 2020
When I moved to St. Petersburg, I wasn't sure that I would be able to find a good doctor, me being so old and all. MDVIP put me in touch with Dr. Hobbs and it couldn't have been better. Dr. Hobbs was able to see me on short notice, and took time and care on office visits. When I spent several days in the hospital after a fall, he was there. Fortunately, I didn't have a subdural Read more...

Dr. Hobbs, over the last three years we have needed your help on numerous occasions.
You have always made yourself available and provided excellent support. Just saying thank you doesn’t put a dent in our gratitude.

I owe my life to Dr. Hobbs. During a checkup, I mentioned what seemed like a minor ache.

I owe my life to Dr. Hobbs. During a checkup, I mentioned what seemed like a minor ache. He diagnosed angina and sent me to the cardiologist. The cardiologist couldn't find any problem. Dr. Hobbs strongly disagreed and demanded additional tests that revealed one artery completely blocked and a second almost completely blocked. The next morning, I underwent emergency bypass surgery. I was Read more...
