Meet Robert A. Carrellas, MD


As a family physician for the past 29 years, perhaps the most important skill I have learned is to listen carefully to my patients. The essence of any good doctor-patient relationship begins with good communication. Maintaining and improving quality of life should be a collaborative effort between the patient and physician. My goal is to provide excellent medical care in a relaxed, compassionate environment in which I have ample time to address all health concerns. As an MDVIP-affiliated physician, I aim to deliver personalized care focusing on wellness and enhanced preventive care.  Similar to concierge medicine practices, I also offer conveniences like same- or next-day appointments that start on time. 

Throughout my professional career I have tried to set an example for my patients by embracing an active lifestyle, emphasizing exercise, sports participation and the health benefits of spending time in nature.

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.

Dr. Carrellas saved me

from JAMES in RI • March 11, 2020
I was having an allergic reaction to a vitamin supplement and Dr. Carrellas saw it immediately, he called the ER and they were waiting for me. Four hours later I was as good as new.
MDVIP was the best decision.

The MDVIP program and his care are worth every penny

from Tim • January 4, 2020
My doctor, Robert Carrellas, has been my primary for many years, and before that, his father was my doctor as a child. I have always had a good relationship with Dr. Bob, but it was typical with fast visits with little time to talk, and limited tests done according to industry standard. Fast forward to almost 2 years ago when he announced that he was scaling down the practice so he could actually Read more...
