Meet Michael E. Monaco, MD

I have strived to create a practice environment that is unhurried, friendly and comfortable where my patients feel welcome and never rushed. My practice style has always been to try to provide comprehensive medical care to my patients by listening to all of their concerns while demonstrating compassion and patience. Ten years ago, the US healthcare system was declared "broken" and it has not improved. Fixes that are needed have not materialized. Premiums are increasing and the hassles for both patients and physicians keep rising. We all know how medicine should be. I invite you to see how medicine can be and is being practiced everyday at my office.

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 Michael E. Monaco, MD

Cutting through the red tape.

from John in MO • January 18, 2024
My Dr is Michael Monaco. He is an amazing Dr and a fantastic person. I also consider him a friend. I needed an Epidural a year ago and the insurance company wouldn’t allow that until I completed a MRI. Dr Mike called the pain clinic and explained my situation and I was at the pain clinic the next day getting a shot. That is just one of many examples of getting something accomplished very Read more...

I am blessed {and always have been} in so many ways that I cannot count them all. Having access to great medical care is one of those blessings.

My primary care doctor is Dr. Michael Monaco who recognized that I had lost 8% muscle mass and some atrophy in my calf muscles. Doctor Monaco Read more...

Michael E. Monaco - The Best of the Best

from Diane in KS • January 18, 2024
Dr. Michael Monaco was our physician before he joined MDVIP. He has always been there when we need him. He was there when I contracted COVID in August 2020. I really love that I can text or call him anytime and he responds right away. Dr. Monaco talks to me as a patient and a friend. He is never too rushed to have a conversation.

from Rebecca in KS • March 26, 2020
It's often stated, it's not what we have in life, but who we have that matters. Dr. Monaco has been my primary care doctor for about 20 years, so well before his MDVIP practice began. I didn't think twice about continuing as his patient. In about a month, I will be a 5 year cancer survivor. Dr. Monaco has been there for me with EVERY step of that journey - even went to my Read more...

All-Pro Doctor

from Jeff in KS • March 18, 2020
The Kansas City Chiefs are lucky to have Dr. Monaco as their team physician. I know first hand the dedication and commitment he has for his profession. He is always quick to help out if I have a problem and has kept me in good health over the years. The players and I aren't the only lucky ones. Years ago, my friend was suffering from severe medical problems. When Dr. Monaco heard of his Read more...
