Meet Nedsely Vila, MD, FACP


I believe in providing personalized care to my patients. As a primary care physician, my approach is rooted in the idea of treating the patient as a whole person, considering their physical and mental health and overall well-being. I believe “the good physician treats the disease, the great physician treats the patient who has the disease,” as famous physician Sir William Osler notably said. 

My passion lies in establishing stronger relationships with my patients. I genuinely want to get to know each individual, listen to their concerns and understand their unique needs and goals. By working collaboratively, we can develop a personalized health plan that better encompasses their overall wellness objectives. I firmly believe in the power of prevention and strive to help empower my patients as they work to stay on top of their health, rather than focus on just treating illnesses or diseases when they arise. 

Throughout my career, I have explored various healthcare settings, including primary care, hospital medicine and academic medicine. Recently, as the Associate Program Director at Piedmont Athens Regional hospital, I have had the privilege of teaching and mentoring future internal medicine physicians. This experience has further shaped my approach to patient care, emphasizing the importance of providing more individualized attention and proactive care.

Having lived in the Oconee County, Georgia, area for over a decade, I have developed a deep connection to this community. I am pleased to serve my neighbors in Watkinsville, Athens, Farmington, Bishop, North High Shoals, Bogart and Clarke County. In my quest to find helpful ways to care for my community and patients, I discovered the MDVIP model. It supports the invaluable gift of more time, helping me to deliver more personalized and proactive care. I am genuinely excited to partner with you on a health journey and work together to help you pursue your wellness goals. Let's build a partnership based on trust, open communication and mutual respect as we navigate your medical needs and help you as you work to feel healthier from the inside out.

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.

Doctor Vila has been attentive to my husband and me from the time she met us. We feel fortunate that she is an excellent diagnostician and caring at the same time. She helped us through a difficult time when my 81 year old husband had Covid and was eventually hospitalized for a month. Our son was with us when we went to Dr. Vila’s office before my husband was hospitalized and he knew that we were Read more...

My Cinderella Moment

from Mary Carolyn in GA • February 17, 2024
I have known quite a number of doctors in my time. Some were better than others. But when I met Dr. Vila, I felt like Cinderella - she was “just right.” Her competency, knowledge and skill level are top notch, but her warm personality and caring attitude put her over the top. I felt comfortable, for the first time, talking about issues that I never would have shared with any previous physician. Read more...

Dr. Nedsely Vila, Outstanding Doctor and Amazing Person

from Billie in GA • February 13, 2024
Since I fell in the spring of 2022, I had been having excruciating pain. And I noticed that every 6 months for my checkups, I was losing more and more weight. Nothing was getting better, and my weight loss and pain were dismissed so I decided to try another PCP. I heard from a friend about MDVIP and decided to give this a try. I was told that instead of the 10 minutes I usually received from Read more...
