Your case is unique, which means your treatment will be designed around your needs. Often we will recommend treatments based on best practices that have worked for other patients, consideration of your specific illness, the results of any tests done, as well as your personal preferences.
We provide treatments for these general conditions:
Anxiety
Anxiety is an uncomfortable feeling of fear, uneasiness, or concern that something bad may happen. Anxiety can cause physical symptoms such as trembling, shaking, muscle aches, restlessness, insomnia, rapid heartbeat, sweating, and clammy hands.
If anxiety interferes with daily activities, you may need treatment with medicines (such as antidepressants or anti-anxiety medications) and/or professional counseling.
Asthma
Asthma is a chronic, inflammatory lung disease characterized by recurrent breathing problems usually triggered by allergens (infection, exercise, cold air, and other factors may also be triggers).
COPD
A type of lung disease marked by permanent damage to tissues in the lungs, making it hard to breathe. COPD includes chronic bronchitis, in which the bronchi (large air passages) are inflamed and scarred, and emphysema, in which the alveoli (tiny air sacs) are damaged. It develops over many years and is usually caused by cigarette smoking. Also called chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Depression
Depression is an illness that causes a person to feel sad and hopeless for much of the time. It is different from normal feelings of sadness, grief, or low energy.
Diabetes
Diabetes is a serious disease, which, if not controlled, can be life threatening. It is often associated with long-term complications that can affect every system and part of the body.
Diabetes can, among other things, contribute to eye disorders and blindness, heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, limb amputation, and nerve damage. It can affect pregnancy and cause birth defects, as well.
Although diabetes is a chronic and incurable disease (with the exception of gestational diabetes), with proper medical care, clinical therapies, diet, hygiene, and exercise, symptoms and complications can be successfully treated and managed.
Flu shots
Protect yourself against the seasonal flu by following the same advice you followed last year: get vaccinated. Everyone who is at least six-months-old should get a flu vaccine this season.
Heart disease
Heart disease is the leading cause of death in adults in the United States. We strive to prevent heart disease among our patients and also work with those who have been diagnosed with heart disease to lead a healthy life. Heart disease (also known as cardiovascular disease and coronary heart disease) is a term used to describe several problems related to plaque buildup in the walls of the arteries. As plaque builds up, the arteries narrow, which makes it more difficult for blood to flow. The narrowing of the arteries puts you at an increased risk for heart attack or stroke. Recognizing signs and symptoms of a stroke are very important for you and your loved ones.
High blood pressure
Also known as hypertension, high blood pressure is defined as a blood pressure of 140/90 or higher. Hypertension usually has no symptoms. It can harm the arteries and increase the risk of stroke, heart attack, kidney failure, and blindness.
High cholesterol
Cholesterol is a type of fat (lipid) that the body needs for many important functions, such as producing new cells. High cholesterol increases the risk of developing heart disease and stroke.
Immunizations
These shots are a technique used to cause an immune response that result in resistance to a specific disease, especially an infectious disease.
