Primary care services
We provide continuing and comprehensive pediatric and adult healthcare, including most preventive, diagnostic, and therapeutic services for a wide array of acute and chronic problems. As family physicians, we are dedicated to treating the whole person. Family medicine’s cornerstone is an ongoing, personal patient-physician relationship focused on integrated care. Unlike other specialties that are limited to a particular organ, disease, age, or sex, family medicine integrates care and patient information for both genders across the full spectrum of ages within the context of the family and community. In addition, it advocates for the patient in an increasingly complex healthcare system.
With an emphasis on disease prevention and health promotion, family medicine aims to provide personal, comprehensive, and continuing care of the individual throughout every stage of life. We are especially devoted to making each individual patient’s needs and concerns a priority.
The first year of your newborn’s life is a time of rapid growth and development, which is monitored and enriched at each wellness visit.

Adolescent health encompasses an essential transition from childhood to adulthood. During this transition, adolescents establish patterns of behavior and make lifestyle choices that affect both their current and future health. It is our goal as your family medicine provider to assist the adolescent during this transition phase by offering education, medical support, and resources. Some important areas to address are:
- General physical health and nutrition: physicals, immunizations, well child exams, treatment of minor illnesses and injuries, assessment & treatment of eating disorders and nutritional concerns
- Mental health and substance abuse: coping skills, stress management, drug and alcohol usage education
- ADD/ADHD: mental and emotional well-being, severity, prevalence, difficulty learning, understanding, or paying attention, medication
- Sexual health: pubertal development, sexual identity, STDs and HIV education, sexuality education, contraception, menstrual health
- Violence: offenders and victims of bullying, psychosocial health, health and safety issues
- Dermatologic health: acne, skin conditions, warts, eczema, burns
Our providers are skilled in evaluating patients for sleep disorders and can assist you with arranging diagnostic studies.
Women’s health covers many areas including menstrual disorders, contraception/diaphragm fitting, menopause, and breast issues.

We also offer the entire spectrum of women’s healthcare including GYN check-ups and management of any related health issues.
