About Dr. Vitt

Dr. Vitt attended Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons for medical school and completed his family medicine residency at Columbia, at New York-Presbyterian Hospital. He holds board certification from the American Board of Family Medicine and a certification from the American Academy of HIV Medicine. He also earned acupuncture certification from Stanford University and the Helms Medical Institute.

After residency, he first worked at Betances Clinic on the Lower East Side, which served a large HIV population. He owns his practice and has complete control of it. The core value of the practice is the primacy of the doctor-patient relationship.

The practice is a direct primary care practice, run on a retainer. It is out-of-network with health insurance companies and takes no money from drug companies. The practice stays small, and joining is by interest form when an opening becomes available.

Office visits and annual physical appointments are for current members. Office staff speak Spanish, with translation services available. Outside work, Dr. Vitt enjoys books, music and long-distance running.

Membership and fees

The practice runs on a retainer, and the membership fee is $249 a month, which includes the annual physical of one full hour.

It's always a pleasure to see him.

"Starting going to Dr. Vitt's last year after recommendations on ZocDoc for an annual check-up. He's incredible. Very approachable and asks probing questions about topics that are difficult to discuss but must be addressed. It's always a pleasure to see him."
