Meet W. Douglas Gentry, MD


I believe that practicing good medicine includes a personalized partnership between doctor and patient. As an MDVIP-affiliated primary care physician, I have more time to develop close relationships with my patients, perform more comprehensive exams and better address current health problems while also helping to better prevent new ones. As your personal doctor, I can work with you to formulate a wellness plan that will help you pursue optimal health. My family practice provides more individualized care that can help make a happier, healthier future your reality. My MDVIP-affiliated practice, often compared to a concierge medicine practice, also offers conveniences like same- or next-day appointments.

Having practiced in this community for more than 40 years, I have relationships with many specialists to whom I can refer should the need arise. I refer to all medical centers, honoring patient preference. We draw patients from Central, Clemson, Pendleton, Salem, Seneca, Walhalla, Westminster and beyond.

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.
