Dr. Matthew J. Kornegay, MD

Dr. Matthew J. Kornegay, MD is an internist in Charleston, SC. He practices within the MDVIP model, a membership-based primary care system that focuses on personalized care and proactive prevention. In this practice structure, physicians typically see fewer patients than those in traditional primary care settings, allowing for deeper doctor-patient relationships. The practice offers conveniences such as same-day and next-day appointments and availability for urgent matters after hours. The annual membership fee covers preventive care services, including advanced diagnostic testing and screenings that insurance often does not cover. Dr. Kornegay continues to bill commercial insurance and Medicare for other medical services, such as sick visits, handling copays, co-insurance, and deductibles as standard.

MDVIP was founded in 2000 by a group of primary care doctors who sought to shift healthcare back toward the patient, emphasizing deep relationships and personalized care. Today, the network includes over 1,400 affiliated physicians across the country, caring for more than 400,000 patients. The organization provides physicians with tools and technology to support wellness and prevention, aiming to remove barriers to a positive healthcare experience. Dr. Kornegay’s practice aligns with this model, prioritizing prevention and the development of long-term patient relationships over high-volume visits.

The practice holds a 5.00 rating based on 6 reviews. This positive feedback reflects the patient experience within the MDVIP framework, where the focus on time, access, and preventive care is central to the service provided.

Dr. Kornegay offers a distinct approach to internal medicine in Charleston, combining the resources of a national membership-based network with the personal attention of a local primary care physician.
