A cardiologist and internist by training, Dr. Lin has a longstanding commitment to prevention and optimizing health through data-driven, lifestyle-oriented approaches. He joins MDVIP from Devoted Health, where he served as National Medical Director and was the company’s first physician hire, responsible for building its clinical care platform from the ground up. Since 2019, he helped lead the development and scaling of a comprehensive, patient-centered care model integrating preventive care, chronic disease management, and longitudinal wellness for primary care patients across the country, growing the clinical team to serve over 400,000 members across 29 states.

His priorities include strengthening MDVIP’s preventive and wellness programs, supporting physicians transitioning into more manageable practice sizes, and expanding the MDVIP model to new physician segments and patient populations across different life stages. “MDVIP was built on the belief that primary care should be proactive, personal and sustainable for physicians,” said Larry Kutscher, CEO and Board Chairman of MDVIP. “Dr. Lin has devoted his career to those same principles, designing care models that prioritize prevention, meaningful time with patients and better long-term health. He will be a powerful advocate for our physician community and a key partner in shaping the future of MDVIP.” Dr. Lin’s passion for MDVIP’s mission is rooted in his early years in practice, when he saw firsthand how fragmented, specialist-heavy care consumed patients’ lives and made it difficult to focus on prevention and long-term health. “As a cardiologist, I’ve always viewed health as a long game,” said Dr. Jeffrey Lin, Chief Medical Officer of MDVIP. “The choices we make in our 40s and 60s shape the next 30 years of our lives. MDVIP has spent more than 25 years building a model that gives physicians the time and tools to focus on prevention and real relationships with patients. I’m excited to help bring that kind of care to more doctors and patients across the country.” Dr. Lin also emphasized the importance of elevating the physician experience. “You can’t deliver great long-term outcomes if the people providing care are burnt out,” he added. “I’m looking forward to partnering with
