Get to know Internist Dr. Kent M. Matsuda, who serves patients in Santa Rosa, California.
Dr. Matsuda is a skilled internist whose MDVIP-affiliated practice is open to patients, including Medicare and commercially insured, in Santa Rosa and the surrounding area. He seeks to address a patient’s physical, mental and emotional well-being through one-on-one counseling and comprehensive diagnostic testing.
Unlike traditional practices wherein doctors might treat 2,000 patients or more, MDVIP ensures that each of its affiliated doctors care for 600 patients or fewer, so patients can receive the extra time and attention they deserve.

Having a personal physician who has the time to get to know everything happening in your life that can impact your health is the key to helping you be as healthy as possible. My partnership with MDVIP allows me to provide my patients with a level of highly personalized, proactive care typically not found in other primary care practices” expressed Dr. Matsuda.
