Meet Peter M. Gottesfeld, MD


My goal in family medicine is to provide private primary care focused on the individual patient. As a private primary care doctor, I use science, technology, and emotional intelligence to create a therapeutic environment focused on treatment of acute illnesses, optimal management of chronic conditions and finding prevention strategies that work for each patient. My MDVIP-affiliated practice offers services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices.  

I am on staff at Northern Westchester Hospital Center and Hudson Valley Hospital Center. With my new office conveniently located in Yorktown Heights less than 2 miles off the Taconic Parkway, I am able to serve the communities of Northern Westchester County (Yorktown Heights, Chappaqua, Armonk, Bedford, North Salem, Pound Ridge, Somers and Croton-on-Hudson) and Putnam County (Garrison, Cold Spring and Mahopac.) 

My certification in Age Management Medicine has given me the opportunity to study nutrition and exercise - two areas in which I have particular interest. As a private doctor, I enjoy partnering with my patients and guiding them in a joint endeavor for better health. I am fluent in Spanish and German.

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 Peter M. Gottesfeld, MD

Love for my Doctor

from Kimm in NY • May 30, 2020
I remember vividly how I came about being referred to Dr. Gottesfeld. It was in 2005, I had just lost my husband to cancer, and had become more astute about my own health care. I was completely dissatisfied with present physician due to long waiting time. Previous MD, even if I were his first appointment always made me wait, which felt like eternity, never failed. I had gotten to the point that Read more...

It is a great comfort to have Dr. Gottesfeld as my doctor!

from Elizabeth in NY • March 12, 2020
Dr. Gottesfeld has been my doctor for 10ish years and knowing he is there has been a constant source of comfort for me. He listens, treats, researches and advises me on my medical care. His attention to detail and curiosity regarding any symptoms I present are amazing. Seeing the same great doctor for so long means he is familiar with me: my history, my quirks, what is normal for my body, my Read more...

No B12 injections for me!

from Anna in NY • March 12, 2020
I grew up in Italy and when I was 10 years old, I fell and skinned my knee on a dirt road frequented by many farm animals. Several days after my fall, I got tetanus and was rushed to a hospital in Rome. Treatment included hourly injections and 3 spinal taps. It was a miracle I survived but to this day any thoughts of an injection sends me to a state of fear and panic. So, when Dr. Gottesfeld Read more...

He literally saved my life!

from Maria in NY • March 12, 2020
Dr. Gottesfeld is the best medical doctor I've ever had; he is patient, kind and relentless in ensuring the best care for his patients. He's also quite the sleuth in trying to get to the bottom of a presenting medical issue. We've built a great doctor/patient relationship over the years. His knowledge of my medical issues led to diagnosing a condition that, with medical Read more...
