What happens during family medicine visits?

A friendly specialist greets you and checks your vital signs (blood pressure, pulse, temperature, etc.), weighs you, and determines your body mass index (BMI). In children, they assess growth and development.

Your specialist discusses your medical history, medications, lifestyle, and symptoms. They complete a physical exam to look for signs of illnesses, diseases, or developmental delays in kids.

You might need diagnostic testing, such as blood testing, urine tests, an EKG, STD testing, or other diagnostic tests to detect or rule out potential problems or better manage a chronic disease. The practice offers on-site lab testing for added convenience.

If you need treatment, such as vaccinations or medication prescriptions, the Family Health & Wellness Center by Dr. Singh team customizes a treatment plan. They follow up periodically and provide specialist referrals as needed.

When should I schedule family medicine appointments?

Schedule an appointment at the Family Health & Wellness Center by Dr. Singh anytime you feel ill or experience new symptoms, and once yearly for a physical exam. You may need more frequent appointments to monitor a chronic disease or if you commonly have questions about your health. Babies and young children should also see their doctor more than once a year.
