Dr. Rasor has been my personal care physician for over 15 years. I can say unequivocally that he is the best doctor I have ever had. He is knowledgeable, thorough, compassionate and most importantly, empathetic. I first met Dr. Rasor when he was affiliated with Premiere Family Physicians in Westlake Hills. I followed him to ProCare and then to Village Medical. Each move was necessitated by his desire to provide patient-centered care in a practice that could offer optimum healthcare to his patients. MDVIP has finally given him the opportunity to do exactly that. I am able to get same-day or next-day appointments. When I call, I can reach his office directly and speak with his medical staff. There's no call center with agents that have zero medical knowledge and are merely relaying my message to the doctor's office only to get a response 48 hours later. I even have 24/7 access to his cell phone. When I text or call his cell phone, I receive a response within 15 minutes if he's not immediately available. Recently I had a situation where a test result came back abnormal. I was terrified. Dr. Rasor explained everything we were going to do to achieve the best possible outcome. I use the pronoun "we" because when you join MDVIP you take control of your own health. It's a collaborative effort between you and your physician to do what's in your best interest regarding your future health. Fortunately, everything turned out well. However, I know I could not have gotten through that 2 week period waiting for test results without Dr. Rasor walking me through it. I sent daily text messages. I bombarded him with questions. And I'm pretty sure I texted him several evenings well past 10:00 PM. Through it all, he had the utmost patience with me. He never once implied that I was bothering him. He was never abrupt with me. And he never once talked down to me. He calmly gave me clarification and peace of mind. He truly understood what I was going through and was determined to assuage my anxiety and fears. I will be forever grateful for his care and compassion during those 2 weeks. I could never put a price on having his medical expertise and caring bedside manner literally at my finger tips. Which brings me to my final thoughts on the MDVIP model. Yes, there's a cost for service and care such as this. It's approximately $48 per week. That may sound like a lot to those of us who only visit our doctor's office 4 or 6 times a year. However, in addition to the above mentioned benefits, there is an executive physical that is done once a year that includes early disease detection, extensive bloodwork, advanced imaging, cancer screenings and specialized testing. These tests go well beyond the standard yearly physical you receive at a doctor's office. This more than pays for the cost of an MDVIP membership. I don't look at this as a membership fee. I consider it an investment in my future. A future that is much healthier and happier due to the excellent healthcare I continue to receive. If you are frustrated with the direction your present healthcare provider is taking, I suggest you definitely consider the MDVIP model. I guarantee you will not be disappointed nor will you ever look back. When I visit Dr. Rasor, he spends well over an hour with me answering all my questions and concerns. He makes sure I leave his office feeling confident that I am living the healthiest life I can possibly live. read more
