Meet Steven M. Rudnick, MD
“First impressions are lasting.” “Don’t judge a book by its cover.” I mention these idioms because I believe I am not your average doctor.
You will notice when you see me that I am far from average, and perhaps not what you expected in a primary care physician. I find, however, that most people who get to know me discover that “caring and competent” is not just a tag line, it is who I am.
In addition to general primary care, my background in mental health, addictions, obesity and more complex conditions allows me to discuss patients’ struggles on a deeper level. I’ve learned firsthand how life’s difficulties can impact well-being. I believe this equips me to care for the whole person with more empathy.
I am thrilled to offer more personalized care that may better fit your lifestyle, with same-day or next-day in-person or telehealth visits. My priority is to work together to build an action plan based on your health goals to better empower you to live life to the fullest. And my MDVIP-affiliated practice offered services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices.
My wonderful team previously worked alongside the renowned Dr. Ron Krauss for years. They share his patient-first values and strive to deliver the care that I believe you seek. Together, we will work to provide you with more individualized attention and service at each step of your wellness journey. You can count on me to work with you, supported by our dedicated staff, to help you pursue your health goals.

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.
