Dr. Laura Addis, a Board-Certified Internist in Henderson, Delivers Membership-Based Medicine to the
Las Vegas Valley

LAS VEGAS and BOCA RATON, Fla., Jan. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- MDVIP, the market leader in membership-based healthcare with a network of over 1,300 primary care physicians nationwide, today announced that board-certified internist Laura Addis, DO, has opened an MDVIP-affiliated primary care practice located at 301 North Pecos Road, Suite E, in Henderson, Nevada. Dr. Addis, who has been practicing in the Las Vegas Valley for over two decades, is currently accepting patients who seek more time and a closer relationship with their primary care doctor.

"My focus has always been on wellness and prevention, which I've learned in my 22 years of practice is best achieved when doctor and patient have a strong, collaborative relationship," said Dr. Laura Addis, who has a special clinical interest in diabetes, hypertension, COPD, heart disease and other chronic conditions. "Joining MDVIP allows me and my patients to take as much time as we need to build a partnership as we dive into their medical history, evaluate their risk and concerns and develop a plan in pursuit of their personal health goals."

Dr. Addis offers the MDVIP Wellness Program Plus, which in addition to MDVIP's comprehensive yearly health assessment, includes an advanced cognitive health screener and a medication review program. By maintaining a smaller practice, Dr. Addis is able to spend more time with patients, so together, they can focus on disease prevention and early detection and better manage chronic conditions. Other conveniences include same- or next-day appointments that last an average of 30 minutes and the ability to reach Dr. Addis directly for urgent matters after hours and on weekends.

Personalized Care
For an annual membership fee, patients receive a comprehensive yearly health assessment comprised of advanced diagnostic tests and screenings to give a more complete view of the patient's overall health. Using the results, physicians provide ongoing coaching and tools to help patients make healthier lifestyle choices, prevent disease and achieve their wellness goals.

Other benefits include the MDVIP Connect app and website, which allow patients to communicate with their doctor online, access personal health records and obtain meal plans, workout programs and other healthcare resources. Should an emergent need arise while a patient is traveling, physicians can help arrange care with a local hospital, pharmacy or doctor, which may include another MDVIP affiliate.

Proven Health Outcomes
Eleven peer-reviewed, published studies show that patients in MDVIP-affiliated practices have better health outcomes compared to those in traditional primary care practices, including:

• 79% fewer hospitalizations for Medicare patients, equating to $600 million savings in one year
• 72% fewer hospitalizations for commercially insured patients
• 40% more patients identified at risk for cardiovascular disease using advanced testing

MDVIP has achieved unrivaled patient satisfaction scores, which in addition to its annual membership renewals, consistently exceed 90%.
