What is primary care?

Primary care is health care for the whole person, rather than just one region of the body or aspect of your health. Primary care encompasses a wide range of wellness-related elements, including:

  • Health promotion
  • Health maintenance
  • Preventive care
  • Disease prevention
  • Counseling
  • Patient education
  • Chronic care management

You can also schedule a primary care visit for cold and flu symptoms and other signs of illness such as skin rashes, sore throat, fever, and back pain.

How does primary care work?

At AFM Healthcare, you can access primary care in-office or via video chat. The practice also has on-call doctors for when your visit can’t wait. The practice provides a variety of primary care services, including:

  • School physicals
  • Strep throat testing
  • Routine checkups
  • Vaccinations
  • Adolescent medicine
  • Geriatric medicine
  • Weight loss help
  • B12 injections
  • Pregnancy and maternal care
  • Blood panel work

When you come to AFM Healthcare for primary care, your team starts by going over your overall health with you. You can take this time to bring up any specific issues or concerns, such as pain or symptoms of an illness.

Next, the team takes your vitals, including your temperature, blood pressure, and heart rate. They may also measure your height and weight.

During a primary care visit, your care team also checks your immunization records and administers any necessary vaccinations or booster shots.

Based on the concerns you express, your vitals, and personal chart, AFM Healthcare may then perform tests, such as:

  • Flu shots
  • Urinalysis
  • Wound suturing
  • Sling placement
  • Bandage wrapping

If you need medication, the practice ends your visit by giving you your prescription and explaining it and your diagnosis to you.
