What is included in family primary care?
The doctors at Osteopathic Medical Associates of Nevada offer a wide range of primary care services at their office, including:
Physical exam
A physical exam is an annual assessment that tracks your overall health and wellness. These preventive exams allow your doctor to review your medical history, evaluate your physical health, and identify any concerning changes.
Immunizations
An immunization, or vaccination, is a preventive treatment to protect you and your community from communicable diseases, such as polio, hepatitis A and B, influenza (flu), and COVID-19.
Sick care
If you have a sore throat, persistent cough, vomiting and diarrhea, sinus congestion, or another common symptom of illness, your doctor at Osteopathic Medical Associates of Nevada can provide the prompt care you need.
Imaging scans
Imaging scans, such as X-rays and ultrasounds, allow your doctor to see your internal structures, including your bones, tissues, and organs. Osteopathic Medical Associates offers onsite imaging scans for your convenience.
Laboratory testing
Lab testing is a complete analysis of your blood, urine, stool, or tissue to investigate new symptoms or diagnose disease. The practice offers several labs onsite, so you don’t have to travel to an outside facility.
Chronic disease management
Chronic diseases, such as diabetes, hypertension (high blood pressure), and heart disease require long-term care for successful outcomes. Creating a personalized health care plan with your doctor can help minimize disease symptoms and prevent complications.
How often should I see a family primary care provider?
