Why Primary Care?

If you need an annual checkup or are simply not feeling well, the fastest and best option is a primary care doctor. Here’s why:

  • They are a reliable first contact for most health concerns
  • They can directly address most healthcare needs
  • They work together with patients in true partnership, often in long-term relationships
  • They see and treat the whole person
  • They know your family health history
  • They have access to and can update your medical records
  • They keep track of immunizations
  • They manage medications
  • They know you best when it comes to what symptoms may need special care
  • If specialized care is needed, they can facilitate referrals which some insurances require
