Primary Care
Primary care is your main source for health services. It's where you go for regular health check-ups, when you're feeling ill, or when you have health ongoing concerns. Your primary care provider knows your health history, which helps them catch any new or changing health issues early. They take care of most of your health needs, like treating common illnesses, managing ongoing conditions, and preventing future health problems. Think of your primary care provider as your personal health coach, helping you navigate all aspects of health and wellness. Examples of primary care include family medicine, internal medicine, pediatrics and women’s health.
Services include:
Annual physical exams and wellness checks
Management of chronic diseases like high blood pressure and diabetes
Refills
Illnesses and injuries
