Meet Timothy Fignar, MD, FAAFP


My goal as your family physician is to provide you with personalized care and help to prevent long-term health problems. Whether your goal is to improve your eating or exercise habits, prevent diabetes or heart disease based on enhanced test results, learn new strategies to improve your quality of life with chronic health problems, or just maintain your current health status going forward, we can do more together.

My MDVIP-affiliated practice, often compared to a concierge medicine practice, also offers conveniences like same- or next-day appointments. Just four miles from the Massachusetts border, I offer longer, face-to-face visits and the ability to contact me after hours. We will focus on prevention strategies, and I have undergone extra training to make that benefit go even further. 
  • I am board certified in obesity medicine. This allows us to focus on nutrition, exercise and behavioral health strategies to help foster a healthier lifestyle, as well as possibly reduce health risks, cut personal healthcare costs and reduce medications.
  • I trained in the BaleDoneen Method, focusing on helping to reduce risks for heart disease, stroke and dementia, just to name a few. To further support our focus in these areas, and in addition to the tests included in the annual MDVIP Wellness Program, we offer carotid ultrasounds (CIMT), oral pathogen testing, sleep studies, gut microbiome evaluation, cardiovascular genetics and lipoproteins. 
I am also excited to offer two optional advanced cancer screening tests outside of the MDVIP Wellness Program services. Please call the office to see if these additional tests are right for you and their costs.
  • One is a genetic test for cardiovascular and cancer markers.
  • Another is a multi-cancer detection test completed through bloodwork that can screen for 50 additional cancers.
I am a dual board-certified physician in family medicine and obesity medicine,  and I have been voted the North Central News’ Top Doctor every year since 2014. I am currently an attending physician at Trinity Health of New England Johnson Memorial Hospital and a community physician for Eastern Connecticut Health Network at Rockville General Hospital and Manchester Memorial Hospital.

My patients come from both Northcentral Connecticut (incuding but not limited to) Enfield, Ellington, Stafford, Somers, Tolland and Vernon, and Western Massachusetts (including but not limited to) Agawam, Longmeadow, Ludlow, Southwick, Springfield and Wilbraham.

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 Timothy Fignar, MD, FAAFP

Great Doctor and associates since 2003

from Earl in CT • February 21, 2024
Dr Fignar always responds to my needs whether it be the need for an appointment, answer to a question or some simple advice. His above the call of duty was manifested by two examples:
1 his associate delivered cold packs and Tylenol to my home after I had called about back pain problem
2 listening to the way I felt after my wife passed away.
Dr Fignar certainly is the reason I Read more...

Dr Fignar

from John in CT • February 19, 2024
Dr Fignar has provided me with many opportunities to manage my health that my previous primary care Dr did not mention. He always takes the time to review my physical and findings thoroughly and provides me with additional opportunities to manage my blood pressure with fish body oils and even types of mouthwash that work best. None of this benefits him in anyway outside of providing good guidance Read more...

Incredibly smart Doctor!

from Robert in MA • February 17, 2024
I have been plagued with an illness that is complex and difficult to diagnose and treat. Dr. Fignar has done an amazing job of researching and having me try various treatments after an incredibly thorough examination and battery of tests.

Great care!

from Judith in MA • February 17, 2024
