I really appreciate being able to contact Dr Martin anytime 7 days a week on his cell phone to discuss an issue I’m having. He is always very responsive and helpful.

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.

How Did He Do It?
from Ronald in SC • January 18, 2024
I came into Dr. Martin's office with intense pain in my right shoulder, of unknown origin (no trauma I know of). He gave me a shot for pain and one for inflammation which gave me immediate relief. But a week later the pain was back so I came into his office a second time. He did the pain shot again, but somehow he got me in to see the specialist (a prominent local orthopedic surgeon) the Read more...

My friend
from Gus in SC • January 18, 2024
I presented to Dr Martin with very high blood pressure after a dental appointment. Frank and I grew up down the street from each other but I hadn’t been to see him professionally for 10 years probably. He had me in the office that day. I don’t like doctors (going to see them professionally) even though my father was an orthopedic surgeon and I was an orthopedic rep for a number of years. Frank Read more...
