THE SERVICES WE OFFER

This practice specializes in family practice, a modern version of the beloved old 'family doctor'. Family practice is comprehensive medical care with particular emphasis on the family unit. In the practice, the physician's continuing responsibility for health care is not limited by the patient's age, sex nor by a particular organ or disease entity. Your family doctor can provide for most of the medical care you and your family will ever need, including annual examinations, school & camp physicals, common illnesses, newborn care, minor sprains and surgery. If an illness or injury should arise that requires more specialized care, we will arrange for that to be provided for you in the most cost efficient manner while continuing to supervise the care you need. The family physician is trained to provide you with the unique role of patient management, problem solving, counseling and a personal physician who knows you first as a real person and friend.

This is a partial list of the services we offer:

• Routine and annual medical examination
• Gynecologic examination and pap smear
• Infant and child health care
• Treatment of hypertension, diabetes, high cholesterol, thyroid disease and peptic ulcer disease as well as many other medical diseases
• Hospitalization
• Minor surgery and laceration repair
• Industrial health care
• Treatment of sports injuries
• Inhalant allergy testing and immunotherapy
• Preventive Care and Women's Health
• Hair removal and spider vein injection

The office is fully equipped to provide the additional services of laboratory, X-ray, EKG, and minor surgery. Only for more specialized tests will it be necessary for you to go elsewhere. We maintain a relationship with both Sparks Regional Medical Center and St. Edwards Mercy Medical Center. In the event you should require hospitalization, the choice is yours or will be determined by your health insurance plan.
