Primary Care

What does primary care entail?

At Southwest Family Physicians, our experienced practitioners offer check-ups, immunizations, screenings, chronic disease management, and care for immediate health concerns. Primary care also includes disease prevention with health screenings, such as mammograms and colonoscopies, and recommendations for healthy living including a well-balanced diet and smoking cessation.

As a primary care clinic, you can call for same-day appointments for issues like skin rashes, stomach pain, or cold and flu symptoms. We see patients of all ages, from infancy to those in senior years. 

Primary care includes:

• Diabetic checks
• Heart disease management
• Arthritis management
• Sinus infections
• Sore throat
• Sprains and strains
• Cold and flu
• Minor to moderate lacerations that may need stitches

At Southwest Family Physicians, we cover all your physical and mental health needs. If you have a complicated case that requires a specialist, we will coordinate your care with a specialist.

What are the benefits of having a primary care doctor?

Southwest Family Physicians is a one-stop location for your basic health needs. When all your records are in the same spot, it’s easier to notice specific health patterns and abnormalities that may suggest disease. The earlier a problem is detected, the easier it is to manage and treat.

Southwest Family Physicians meets all your health care needs in one office. We are dedicated to serving your individual health needs with kindness, respect, and quality care. We offer a variety of specialties and services in one location. In-house lab testing, OB/GYN care, minor surgeries, family medicine, behavioral health counseling, physical therapy, and even holistic treatments, such as acupuncture, hypnotherapy, and massage, are available on-site.
