James F. Bampton, M.D.

For Dr. James Bampton, helping patients with the array of health issues they face throughout life has always been his goal. His drive to become a doctor started early in life.  

"Probably when I was around 12," he says. "I always wanted to be that person taking care of families. I’ve just always wanted to go somewhere and do some good."

Before he transitioned to family medicine in Midlothian, VA, Dr. Bampton spent seven years as a physician with the Indian Health Service in northwest New Mexico. 

"Being out in the middle of nowhere, I had to treat just about everything," he says. "That’s what I love about family medicine. I love being able to guide people through all stages of life and through whatever life throws at them."

Now, 15+ years after moving from New Mexico to be closer to family and continue his career as a primary care doctor, Dr. Bampton still focuses on providing personalized, preventive care in a kind, reassuring manner. 

"I want to know where you are health-wise. Have you had a lot of health problems? Do you need help figuring out a complicated puzzle, or are you simply set on marching toward a goal?"

"I learned through my own life the value in delivering care the right way," he says. "That’s why I love concierge medicine. I get the chance to actually talk at length with my patients and fully dive into their situations, without feeling rushed."
