Primary Care

Why is it important to have a primary care provider?

Establishing a relationship with a primary care provider helps create general benchmarks for your overall health. These measurements reduce your risks of developing health conditions in the future and also help your provider identify potential issues before they arise.

As your primary care provider, Justine also serves as your guide to maintaining optimal health and helps you manage chronic medical conditions. During your annual appointments, she ensures your vaccinations are current and that your weight, heart rate, and blood pressure are within healthy guidelines.

You also share your personal and family medical histories to monitor potential health risks. This helps Justine look for conditions that tend to run in families, such as high cholesterol, heart disease, and diabetes.

Justine not only provides comprehensive physical exams to fully understand your current health needs and risk of disease, but she also ensures you get the appropriate referrals to other health experts to ensure you get the care you need. As your healthcare manager, Justine communicates with all other health providers to ensure continuity of care.

What can I expect during a primary care visit?

The specifics of your primary care visit at Revia Health & Wellness may depend on the reason for the visit and your overall health needs. However, no matter the reason for your visit, you can expect a comprehensive exam that focuses on you and your well-being.

Justine reviews your health concerns and reason for the visit, as well as your medical history and the types of medications and supplements you take. Then, she conducts a physical exam and may request diagnostic tests to screen for health concerns or confirm or rule out a suspected diagnosis.

After your exam, Justine develops a treatment plan that addresses your unique health needs, which may include lifestyle modifications, updating vaccinations, prescription medications, or referral to other health specialists.
