What Members Are Saying

Dr. Frank, has saved my life so many times, the first when he was sharing his dad's office in 1997. He put me on blood pressure prescription drug Vasotec 20mg. a day 10/17 1987. And every year since I have been under his care. His grandfather brought me into this world in 1952...I hope gets to to see me leave it when God takes me home. God bless you, Frank.

I'm retired military and used their medical system for over 40 years. I would have a primary care provider (PCP) , but would only see them when they scheduled an appointment with me. When "I" needed to see a doctor and make an appointment, I never got my PCP. The personal service with MDVIP allows my doctor to know me and provide ALL MY Medical care.

About two weeks ago the scheduler in Dr. Frank's office and I realized we had not set a date for my annual physical. After looking at Dr. Frank's schedule for quite some time she realized the earliest appointment was over two months out. At that time Dr. Frank walked up and asked what we were doing as he was wondering why I was still in the office. After giving him the explanation, Dr. Frank told the scheduler to put me in on April 1, 2024 at 8:00 a.m. She immediately told him he was scheduled off for a golf tournament that day. His response was "Don't worry I'll get my T-Time set so I can take care of Steve (me) that morning!" This is one example of so many things that he does throughout the year to take care of my wife and me. That's Dr. Frank! The most caring person, always taking care of patients needs, always asking pertinent questions regarding patients conditions, always making a call or texting later in the day following up on a patient and always with the most pleasant, gentle attitude and he always has a smile upon greeting a patient to start an appointment. Dr. Frank, a man who truly cares, a doctor whose staff follows his lead in going the extra mile to take great care of their patients. My wife and are so fortunate to have this man as our Primary Care Physician.

Meet Francis Mueller, MD

I am a third generation family practice doctor and my goal, like those before me, is to provide the best care possible to all my patients by treating them like family. I am committed to helping my patients stay well; I don't just care for them when they are ill. I have the time to guide you through the complexity of today's healthcare system and explain medical problems and treatment options in terms that everyone can understand. One of my many interests is learning about new and exciting innovations in medicine, which supports my proactive approach to patient care.

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.

from William in TX • March 4, 2018

My understanding was that Dr. Mueller joined MD-VIP in order to have more free time for himself from an overworked schedule. Instead he has used his free time to find new methods to help his patients. I am the benefit of one of the new methods: IASIS (micro current neurofeedback). Suffering from depression my entire life, but particularly since 2013, IASIS at least gives me hope for Read more...
