History

Established in 2011.

Dr. Steven S. Charlap received an MD from New York University School of Medicine, an MBA from Harvard Business School, and completed a surgical residency at New York’s Beth Israel Medical Center. In 1989, he founded and became Chief Service and Medical Officer of HealthDrive, which he grew to become the largest US provider of medical and dental services to extended care facilities. Over nearly twenty years, a two-​time Inc. 500 company, HealthDrive served more than five million patients in over 1,500 facilities in13 states.

During his tenure at HealthDrive, Dr. Charlap witnessed how unhealthy lifestyles contribute to heart disease, dementia, diabetes, stroke and even some forms of cancer, which often result in costly, invasive and reactive medical treatments.

In response, Dr. Charlap developed the concept of MDPrevent– a medical practice focused on helping patients make lifelong and lasting improvements to their lifestyles to enjoy more healthy years.
