What Members Are Saying

Dr Schubert, you became our primary care physician when you assumed Dr Trotter’s practice as he retired. You, Margot and the girls were always kind and responsive to us: to me, as one who does not do well with blood work, to our daughter, Robin, when she was not well while visiting us, and especially to Bob, at the discovery that the unusual growth on his torso was a form of Lymphoma. I was especially grateful for the time you met us on a weekend before Christmas (in your T/shirt, the Walmart bag on the counter!) because Bob was having trouble walking. You referred him to MUSC where he had good care through treatment and his eventual death, now already more than 2 years ago! As I have moved back to Atlanta, you let me know you were still available to me. Thank you for your good care. God bless you always ~ Psalm 115:15

Patient of Robert L. Schubert, MD

I contracted Covid in December 2020 when littel was known about the disease. After testing - I contacted the State agency (DHEC) and Dr. Schubert. He prescribed some meds for cough and told me what to look for as complications. He literally called or texted me or my wife every day listening to the emerging symptoms (aches, loss of smell, etc) and had me on the lookout for shortness of breath. The went on for almost 2 weeks - fortunalty I recovered fully but will never forget him checking up on me every day. It meant a lot to me and my wife.

Meet Robert L. Schubert, MD

We tend to take our health for granted. We live hectic lives, distracted by all the things that demand our attention while not paying enough attention to our most important possession – our health. We push ourselves harder and harder, presuming we will be just as healthy tomorrow as we were yesterday while doing very little to maintain ourselves.

Most agree that the best way to maintain your car is not to drive it until it doesn’t run anymore, and then see if it can be fixed. This is unfortunately a very common approach to taking care ourselves; many of us take no time to reflect on our health until we're sick. Our current healthcare system is based on this concept as well, which is why I chose to become an MDVIP-affiliated physician. Now, I have the time to care for you personally and proactively, which are the keys to helping you enjoy the healthiest life possible.

I am double board certified in Family Medicine and Clinical Lipidology. I focus on the early diagnosis and aggressive treatment of cardiovascular disease (the most common cause of disability and death in the United States). My expertise lies in diabetes, high blood pressure, cholesterol problems and additional causes of strokes, heart attacks and other forms of vascular disease. I use advanced diagnostics, including genetic testing, inflammatory markers, imaging and advanced particle analysis to find vascular disease early, allowing me adequate time to work with each patient to develop a specialized treatment plan. You can’t treat everyone's needs the same way. That is the value of MDVIP’s model of personalized medicine. Similar to concierge medicine practices, I also offer conveniences like same- or next-day appointments that start on time.

We can now better find potentially deadly illnesses before symptoms emerge. This is a major focus of my practice - prevention. The best path to a longer, healthier life is through a healthier lifestyle, avoiding disease and seeking early detection. This cannot be done passively. As a private doctor, I help my patients become active, informed participants in their own healthcare, and I believe the close partnerships I share with my patients is critical to them being well and staying well.

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.

All in all I am very happy with this MDVIP arrangement.

from Curt in SC • March 14, 2018

I met Dr. Schubert for the first time in October, 2017. I was interviewing a couple of Physicians to continue my concierge health coverage which I liked. He was outgoing in our interview and I felt he was very qualified to assist me in keeping my good health. As a cardio type Doctor I felt this was the kind of practice I would benefit most from here in Hilton Head. Dr. Schubert's staff Read more...

It just shows that he has his patients best interest at heart.

from Gail • January 30, 2018

I'm not used to having such a wonderful doctor, who not only wants me to call him any time, but encourages it, as was the case recently . It just shows that he has his patients best interest at heart. Never rushed, never a wait, always thorough,
always patient and understanding. I couldn't ask for a better doctor.

Dr. Schubert spent considerable amount of time discussing my health situation
