Primary Care Q & A

What is primary care?

Primary care is a branch of medicine that prioritizes a person’s existing and long-term health and wellness.

As a physician with over 15 years of primary care experience, Dr. Rezvani specializes in diagnostic testing and treatment services for adults with injuries, acute illnesses, and chronic diseases.

His patients also have access to preventive screening services to lower your risk for heart disease, Type 2 diabetes, hypertension (high blood pressure), and other chronic conditions.

What primary care services are available?

To address all of your health care needs, Dr. Rezvani offers a broad range of patient-focused primary care services, including:

• Physicals

• Wellness exams

• Sick visits

• Blood work

• Electrocardiograms (EKG)

• Nutritional counseling

Dr. Rezvani also provides chronic disease management services to address conditions like diabetes, hypertension, and asthma.

While you may need to visit the office for physicals and diagnostic testing, you can also meet with Dr. Rezvani from the comfort of your home or wherever you are through telehealth.

What happens during a primary care appointment?

During a primary care appointment, Dr. Rezvani spends time reviewing your personal and family medical history, as well as discussing any questions or concerns you have about your health.

If you’re not feeling well, Dr. Rezvani performs a physical exam and may order blood work or other tests to confirm your diagnosis. There’s a lab next door that can provide fast results for flu tests, strep tests, and blood tests, so you don’t have to travel elsewhere to get the answers you need. Dr. Rezvani then customizes a treatment plan to help you feel better.

If you’re visiting for chronic disease management, Dr. Rezvani can evaluate your overall health and ensure any treatments you’re using are working well. He may also order blood work to check your blood sugar levels if you have diabetes, or you may need other tests to screen for health complications.

Your primary care appointments are also a great time to learn more about the lifestyle and diet changes you can make now to optimize your health and lower your risk for chronic illness and other health complications.
