Primary care helps you stay healthy and prevent disease.
Family medicine focuses on comprehensive care and optimal health for individuals and families across all ages. As your primary care provider, we learn your personal and medical history and help you manage health issues, chronic conditions and preventive measures to keep you healthy. Services range from routine and preventive care to chronic disease management, care for acute illness and aging health issues, immunizations, health screenings, medication management, weight management, care for minor injuries and wounds, sports physicals and more. Should you need additional specialized care, we will refer you to an appropriate specialist.
