Description

Teresa M. Schaer, MD, FACP, is an internal medicine and geriatric physician at Penn Medicine and a founding force behind what is now Penn Personalized Care — a concierge medicine practice she built around her belief that preventing the problems of aging requires time, attention, and a genuine relationship. Dr. Schaer sees patients from age 18 to 110, offering 45- to 60-minute follow-up appointments, multi-hour new patient visits, and a comprehensive physical exam every year. Patients have her cell phone number and can reach her directly 24/7 — not through an answering service — giving them real peace of mind. Her approach blends thorough management of medical conditions with a strong focus on prevention, always meeting each patient where they are in their health journey. Some of her patients have trusted her with their care for 20 to 30 years, which says everything about the kind of doctor she is.
