Meet Debra A. Fast, DO


My passion as an internal medicine physician is to provide you with highly personalized healthcare with an emphasis on wellness and disease prevention. I have always treated my patients as I would want my own family members to be treated, and will continue to do so as an MDVIP-affiliated physician, in a warm and welcoming atmosphere. As a practicing internal medicine physician for nearly 20 years, you will benefit from the full extent of my education, expertise, wisdom and compassion. I also have always prided myself on being a great listener and feel that this quality will continue to be very beneficial as I work with you, side by side, toward creating and meeting your health and wellness goals.

Over the last 20 years, as I have grown in my profession, it has become quite obvious to me the importance of good nutrition and exercise in disease prevention. My passion is to educate my patients on diet and exercise and motivate them to use these tools to prevent disease and improve overall health and well-being. I also have a special interest in cardiovascular health, diabetes, hypertension and aesthetic medicine. I have done highly advanced training in Botox and facial aesthetic fillers and enjoy using these as anti-aging tools.

I look forward to providing you with highly personalized healthcare, and being the personal physician that you can trust and rely on to provide you with the best healthcare possible. My internal medicine practice is located in Wooster, Ohio. I am affiliated with Wooster Community Hospital. My practice services several surrounding counties including Wayne, Holmes, Ashland, Medina, Summit and Stark.

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.

Deb Fast- the best

from Pamela in OH • March 19, 2020
Deb Fast has been my doctor for a long time. She is caring, listens, and is pro-active. She returns calls and texts in a very timely manner. She never makes me feel like I'm bothering her when I have a concern. I feel like I get the best of care with her.

Thanking and Celebrating Dr. Fast

from Richard in OH • March 18, 2020
I want to thank Dr. Debra Fast for her compassion for her patients. She does an excellent job at taking time during examinations, answering questions, and explaining all the blood test results. During last year's physical, Dr. Fast was concerned about some spots on my skin. She suggested I see a dermatologist. I followed up and the dermatologist had to remove a basil cell growth and I am Read more...

Doctor Fast never gave up!

from Dawn in OH • March 17, 2020
I had severe nerve pain and numbness radiating down my left leg. I had my husband take me to the emergency room in hopes they would be able to do a stat MRI. The ER doctor did not even check my reflexes. She gave me IV pain medication and sent me home. At this point it had rendered me wheelchair bound. Dr Fast had me into her office and discovered after a complete exam that I had NO reflexes in Read more...

Dr. Debra Fast, Happy Doctor's Appreciation Day!

from Mary in OH • March 13, 2020
As part of my MDVIP Wellness Summary on Dec. 31, 2018, Dr. Fast asked me to consider having a cardiac calcium scoring test. I did this test on May 2, 2019. Dr. Fast met with me on May 7th to go over the results of the test. My score was over 400. She referred me to Dr. Daniel Newton-Interventional-Cardiologist in the Wooster Heart Group. After several more tests, a stent was put in on June Read more...

from Phyllis in OH • March 2, 2018
Dr Fast knows me so well. She understands me and seems to be able to get to the bottom of my problems. I have some chronic health issues and she always watches closely. She always has enough time, and takes my calls or texts at any time. I really appreciate knowing I have someone I can trust to get ahold of at any time when I am unsure of what is happening or what I should do. She is like a Read more...
