Family Medicine - Board Certified
A family medicine doctor is a medical doctor devoted to comprehensive health care for people of all ages. Family Medicine doctors provide health care to individuals and entire families. Unlike other physicians who specialize in treating one particular organ or disease, your family physician is specially trained to care for you as a whole person, regardless of your age or sex. In addition to diagnosing and treating acute and chronic illnesses, your family physician provides routine health screenings and counseling on lifestyle changes in an effort to prevent illnesses before they develop.
