Primary care services
Annual exams, chronic conditions, and preventive care : coordinated with your mental and behavioral health.
Annual Physical Exams
Comprehensive health evaluations including vital signs, physical examination, and health history review. For women, exams may include breast and pelvic screenings. For men, testicular and prostate exams when appropriate. We also provide preventive screenings based on your age and risk factors.
Chronic Condition Management
Ongoing care for diabetes, high blood pressure (hypertension), high cholesterol, asthma, COPD, heart disease, thyroid disorders, and other long-term health conditions. Regular monitoring, medication adjustments, and lifestyle support to keep your condition stable and prevent complications.
Preventive Care & Screenings
Immunizations, cancer screenings, cholesterol testing, diabetes screening, blood pressure monitoring, and other preventive services designed to catch health issues early. Personalized screening schedules based on your age, family history, and health risks.
Acute Illness & Sick Visits
Treatment for flu, colds, respiratory infections, urinary tract infections, allergies, skin conditions, minor injuries, and other non-emergency health concerns. We diagnose and treat acute illnesses to get you feeling better quickly.
Weight Management & Nutrition Support
Medical evaluation and support for weight-related concerns. Nutritional guidance, lifestyle counseling, and treatment for conditions affected by weight such as diabetes and high blood pressure. Personalized approach based on your health goals and medical needs.
Medication Management & Coordination
Review and management of all your medications to ensure they work together safely. Prescription refills, medication adjustments, and coordination with specialists when needed. We monitor for drug interactions and side effects, especially when you're seeing multiple providers.
Your doctors should talk to each other
When your primary care doctor doesn't know what your psychiatrist prescribed, or doesn't understand how substance use affects your diabetes — important things get missed. You end up coordinating everything yourself.
Your health is connected. Your care should be too.
Primary care that sees the whole picture
Your primary care provider works with our mental health and substance use teams. They share notes, coordinate medications, and make sure nothing falls through the cracks.
What this means:
- No repeating your story at every appointment
- Medications are checked for interactions across all your providers
- Physical symptoms related to mental health or substance use get recognized
- Your care adjusts as your life changes
We meet you where you are. No judgment.
When your providers work together
Medications stay safe
Some psychiatric meds affect blood sugar or cholesterol. Substance use impacts liver and heart health. Your primary care doctor monitors these and adjusts treatment.
Symptoms make sense
Fatigue, sleep problems, weight changes : sometimes these are related to depression, anxiety, or other behavioral health concerns. Connected care catches these patterns.
Recovery gets supported
Physical health impacts mental health and vice versa. When your providers coordinate, you get care that actually fits your life.
First Visit
What to bring:
• Insurance card & ID
• List of current medications (including over-the-counter and supplements)
• Medical records if you have them
What happens (45-60 min): Your provider reviews your health history, does a physical exam, and may order lab work. We ask about mental health, substance use, sleep, and stress because they impact your physical health.
You’ll leave with a care plan and a follow-up appointment scheduled.
