If you experience the any of the above symptoms, call Jolene for a prompt assessment.
Patients with long-term conditions like diabetes, hypertension, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and arthritis require ongoing care, including regular tests and checkups.
One of the key roles of primary care is to help you avoid getting sick in the first place. Preventive medicine includes protecting yourself against diseases like flu and pneumonia with vaccines — shots that prime your immune system to destroy certain disease-causing bacteria and viruses.
Weight loss, diet improvement, stress management, and quitting smoking also benefit your health enormously. Jolene can help with all these issues to prevent potentially life-threatening conditions, such as cardiovascular disease, strokes, and Type 2 diabetes.
Another area where preventive medicine saves lives is screening. Testing your blood for high cholesterol and blood sugar, measuring your blood pressure, and cancer screening can all help you avoid serious health problems.
