Dr. Thomas Hopkins

Meet Thomas G. Hopkins, MD


The cornerstones of Family Medicine have always been treating the whole person and promoting disease prevention through a healthy lifestyle. These beliefs have always been the focus of my practice for the past 25 years. As an MDVIP family physician, I am able to continue my life passion with these principles at the forefront. 

Fifteen years ago I was overweight with metabolic abnormalities that were the precursors to diabetes and heart disease. With diet and exercise, I was able to achieve and maintain an ideal body weight with normalization of my lab tests and have strived to do the same with my patients. As a result of my personal experience I have special medical interests in weight management, nutrition, diabetes and cardiovascular health. In addition to promoting a healthier lifestyle, I have also cared for many patients with multiple, complex medical problems over the years. These patients need the time and focus that my MDVIP practice will allow.

As your personal physician, I will be able to focus on all of your current medical needs and, through promotion of a healthier lifestyle, to help prevent new health problems from developing. My MDVIP-affiliated practice, often compared to a concierge medicine practice, also offers conveniences like same- or next-day appointments. As a team, we will strive to improve your health status, reduce your reliance on medications and help you attain your lifestyle 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.

My relationship with Dr Hopkins has been nothing but fantastic for over 25 years. He always does extensive testing and beyond and has found potential problems that I would have had not been found in time, one main test bloodwork he had found a high iron amount which later would have been devastating to my health if it had not been diagnosed, it turned out I had hematomacrosis that I am now being Read more...

Sunday Availability

from W in AZ • February 12, 2024
Last year after a return from vacation, I tested positive for COVID. I was reluctant to reach out to my doctor (Dr. Hopkins), as it was a Sunday afternoon. But he was available, gracious, and resolved my concerns. It's one more reason, why I'm grateful for the care that Dr. Hopkins provides; not just because he's an MDVIP - affiliated physician, but it's his genuine concern Read more...
