Dr. Kaplan has been my internist for many years.

Dr. Kaplan has been my internist for many years. I have followed him each time he moved his office, from McDonough Crossroads to Owings Mills to Naylors Lane.My husband, David, my sons, Jonathan & Joshua, and my daughter-in-law,Ivy, also use Dr. Kaplan. I love Dr. Kaplan because I believe he understands me. I am a retired nurse, so I have some medical knowledge. I believe it gets in my way! Although, for the most part, I am healthy, a little bit of knowledge can
be dangerous! I get nervous, (even though for the most part, I'm healthy) when I have to go to the doctor! Dr. Kaplan has a calming manner. He makes me feel comfortable and he makes it easy to ask him questions. I like knowing that when I need him, he is there for me & my family. Although, admittingly, I may not be 100 compliant, but I do try to practice preventative health. I take a Body Pump class (light weight-lifting) 2 times a week, (with my husband), weather permitting, I walk a lot, seldom eat red meat, etc. I think that MDVIP is about: practicing preventative medicine, knowledge of your body, and being an educated consumer who works as a partner with your doctor. Dr. Kaplan, is very approachable, makes himself available, is understanding, knowledgeable, and when he isn't sure about something, isn't afraid to admit it! I hope to be healthy and active for many more years and I have confidence that Dr. Kaplan will be there along the way to guide me and be my health partner!
