Matthew J. Malta, MD

"I received the honor of becoming a doctor after earning my Medical Degree at Tulane University in New Orleans. Tulane Medical School instills upon its students not only an education of the disease process, but also a high expectation for the responsibility of a physician in caring for an individual. My joint degree from the Tulane School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine broadened my focus to include community health. It gives me greater insight in the prevention of illnesses and maintenance of a person’s well-being.

 After medical school I was selected for my first choice of Internal Medicine residency at the University of Maryland in Baltimore. There’s a saying that you get your medical degree in medical school, but you earn it in residency training. This was indeed the case with the rigorous training at the University of Maryland. After completion, I tested and became board certified in Internal Medicine. Even after over 15 years in clinical practice, I am still thankful to my residency program for its outstanding education."

"The goal of the medical practice is to provide each patient with as much direct access to the doctor as possible. Dr. Matthew Malta is in a solo, private medical practice. He feels this is the best way to provide a personal approach to medicine without being limited by outside constraints. Dr. Malta has no other health care providers in the office; there are no layers or “barriers” preventing you from direct access.

It is important to establish a one-on-one relationship with your doctor. In this practice you will have 24/7 direct access to Dr. Malta and have punctual same day or next day, unrushed appointments. He will provide patients with his cellphone number with the ability to text message and his e-mail so you can contact him directly about your healthcare needs. Additionally, the office is conveniently located with parking directly in front of the office door."
