Primary Care in Arlington, VA
A Relationship, Not a Series of Appointments
Good primary care is not complicated. It is a physician who knows your baseline, notices when something shifts, and has the time to talk it through with you.
That is harder to find than it should be. Most practices are built around volume, which means shorter visits and a different face each time you come in. Arlington Medical Associates is built to avoid that. We accept most insurance plans and participate in Medicare. We serve adults throughout Arlington, Alexandria, Falls Church, McLean, and the greater Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia (DMV) area. Call (703) 533-2222 to schedule.

What Is Primary Care?
Primary care is your first stop for most health concerns and the foundation for your ongoing wellness. At Arlington Medical Associates, our team of board-certified internal medicine physicians and nurse practitioners focuses exclusively on adult health, providing specialized, comprehensive care tailored to your mature needs.
Internal medicine provides comprehensive adult healthcare, covering sudden illnesses, chronic disease management, and routine preventive screenings while seamlessly coordinating your care with specialists.
How Primary Care Works Here
Your initial consultation establishes a vital health baseline through a comprehensive review of your medical history, current medications, and existing conditions. Moving forward, your physician actively manages your preventive and routine care, dynamically adjusting treatments as your health evolves while maintaining central oversight during specialist collaborations.
Primary Care Benefits
- The same board-certified physician or nurse practitioner at every visit
- Appointments with time for the whole conversation
- On-site lab services for most routine testing
- Chronic conditions managed against your own baseline
- Preventive screening matched to your history and risk
- Coordinated referrals when you need a specialist
- Care guided by clinical judgment rather than insurance requirements
What to Expect With Primary Care
Your First Visit
New patients start with a review of medical history, current medications, family history, and anything already being managed. That visit establishes the baseline everything afterward gets measured against. Bring a list of your medications and records from previous providers if you have them.
Wellness visits and check-ups are scheduled for 30 minutes. Sick visits run 15 to 30 minutes depending on what you are coming in for.
Ongoing Care
Your physician handles routine and preventive care, adjusts treatment as circumstances change, and remains your point of contact as things come up.
Between visits, you can reach us through the Healow patient portal or by phone. An on-call physician or provider is available after hours for urgent matters.
When You Need a Specialist
Referrals are coordinated through your physician, who stays involved in what happens next and follows up on the results.

What our clients say
Every Provider has been patient and kind with my special needs brother, and worked with his family so he gets the best medical care. We have dealt with the front desk many, many times and they are ALWAYS very helpful, very kind and very patient with him and me. This a wonderful clinic!
– Leah B.
My doctor was DR. Uy and he is a great physician and was very empathetic and a good listener. I was very happy with him during my time in Virginia. They are polite on the phone and respond to voicemails for prescription refills very fast, usually the same day.
– Michael B.
Dr. Vidwans is our favorite doctor! He caught my husband’s cancer at a yearly checkup and sent him immediately for treatment. He’s extremely kind and he listens carefully when you’re describing a problem. He’s really an amazing young doctor. We love this practice!
Love Dr. Vidwans! He is a kind and knowledgeable doctor that wants to help people and provides lifestyle options rather than shoving pills down your throat. We moved to Maryland and still kept him because there’s no better PCP for us.
– Alejandro M.
Dr. Vidwans is the best doctor I’ve ever seen. Very caring and compassionate. Always takes time to listen to my questions and concerns. The entire staff is friendly and helpful.
– Laura H.
Excellent care and compassionate services. Wife almost died while we were traveling. Long hospital visit across the planet. After more surgeries and complications than I can count, the hospital discharged my wife with some minimal information. We flew home. Had a few pieces of paper to describe a week in the ICU and another week in trama surge. Doc Uy and his team have been very helpful in getting the follow-up care my spouse required. Sending love and good vibes your way!
– Bradley G.
