Quick links to make managing your health care easier.

Internal Medicine: Our internal medicine providers care for patients age 18 and older with a specific focus on existing illnesses or issues that concern many older adults.

While they offer similar services as a family physician like annual exams, physicals, lifestyle coaching and prescription medication management, internal medicine doctors also help patients manage chronic illnesses that affect the heart, lungs, liver or kidneys, and treat chronic conditions that occur simultaneously. Some of the most common conditions that internists treat include:

Diabetes

Heart disease

High blood pressure

High cholesterol

Joint conditions

Lung disease

Respiratory illnesses

Sleep disorders

Family Medicine: Our family medicine providers offer primary care with an emphasis on health and wellness for patients of all ages. If you have children, many people find it beneficial to choose one doctor for their entire family. This allows the doctor to get to know your family’s unique dynamics and become familiar with family health histories. While they can also treat specific conditions unique to you, a family practitioner may be the right choice for comprehensive, whole-family care.

Because family medicine doctors treat such a wide age range, they also treat many conditions. Family doctors can identify health risks at any stage of life, recommend the right preventive care and treat many illnesses and injuries. Taking a whole-body approach to health and wellness, they address everything from smoking cessation to mental health issues. Family medicine doctors offer:

Annual exams and physicals

Health screenings

Lifestyle coaching

Prescription medication management

Treatment for acute conditions such as cold or flu

Treatment of some chronic conditions such as high blood pressure or diabetes

Vaccines and immunizations

As soon as your test is complete, we send your specimen to our lab. And as soon as the lab has the results, you'll start getting answers. We'll notify you of your lab results in person, of course, but we can also post your results in your AdventHealth account, allowing you to easily manage your care by making appointments, paying bills, accessing test results, and more.
