Meet Lisa C. Fishman, MD


"The good physician knows his patients through and through, and his knowledge is bought dearly. Time, sympathy, and understanding must be lavishly dispensed, but the reward is to be found in the personal bond which forms the greatest satisfaction of the practice of medicine." – Dr. Francis Weld Peabody, 1927

For me, the challenge and enjoyment of medicine is applying my medical acumen and skills to the individual needs of each patient. In order to accomplish this, I deeply value time spent getting to know each patient and developing a relationship based upon mutual trust and understanding. From almost 20 years of experience in various medical settings, I truly believe that listening to patients is still the most valuable skill acquired in our training and is one of my strengths. I believe that patients know their bodies best and the ability to carefully listen and observe verbal and non-verbal information is invaluable to understanding a patient and delivering optimum care.

As an internist, I feel privileged to see and guide patients through different stages and challenges of life. I strive to keep patients vibrant and well, work hard to educate them about wellness and prevention and help them navigate the complexities of illness and treatment. I recognize and value that sometimes simply listening and holding a hand may be equally as important and comforting to the patient as making a complex diagnosis.

Overall, my goal is to advocate on your behalf and empower you to play an active role in your healthcare. The better I know you, the better I can accomplish this.

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.

A Doctor Who Really Cares

from Sande in NY • February 27, 2024
