The Importance of a Primary Care Provider
Having a dedicated primary care provider allows you to get consistent care from a professional who understands your medical history. Because a primary care provider is familiar with your medical needs, abnormalities will be caught more quickly, allowing for more efficient treatment. Primary care and checkups allow you to undergo routine appointments to monitor your risk for heart disease, cancers, stroke, and other critical ailments.
