Paul Feldan, MD

As an internal medicine and geriatric specialist with over 25 years’ experience, I have learned that there is no “one size fits all” in medicine. It is important to me that I can partner with each patient so they can be an active participant in his or her care. My smaller MDVIP-affiliated practice fosters a stronger, more personal patient-doctor relationship in which there is more time to understand what motivates the patient to achieve his or her wellness goals and to help identify and overcome any barriers to achieving those goals. 

I believe that it is better to focus on prevention, not just treating disease. In my practice, I am able to devote more time to educate my patients about such things as risk factors, lifestyle changes and preventive medicine. In addition, the diagnostic and wellness tools available with my MDVIP-affiliation are valuable for identifying and addressing any issues that may cause illness. 

My approach to health maintenance is a practical one. As the father of three boys, a husband, youth sports coach and physician, I know there is not always time to eat right, exercise and “do as the doctor ordered.” For example, in the case of exercise, finding an enjoyable activity will be motivation to continue it. For me, martial arts and lacrosse keep me active and motivate me to eat properly. 

In my general outpatient practice, as a geriatrician, and in nursing home and rehabilitation settings, I handle many complex cases. Having a smaller practice allows me more time to help those with more acute needs or complex problems to navigate the health care system, to coordinate care with specialists - which helps avoid hospitalizations - and to help with the continuity of post-hospital care. Similar to conveniences often associated with concierge medicine practices, I also offer same- or next-day appointments that start on time. 

My practice in Mount Laurel, New Jersey serves the surrounding Burlington and Camden county towns of Marlton, Voorhees, Moorestown, Cherry Hill and others. In addition to my office, I see patients in Aspen Hills Healthcare Center, a long term care nursing facility and short term rehabilitation hospital, and Buttonwood Behavioral Healthcare Hospital, a psychiatric facility. 

I look forward to meeting and working with you to promote and maintain your health.
