Health is one of your greatest possessions. Finding yourself a reliable doctor of primary care will be one of your smartest decisions ever.

What Are the Services Provided by a Primary Care Doctor?
Primary care physician is the first person whom you turn to in case of any health problems. Unlike seeing different specialists for each and every problem you might have, a family doctor coordinates all your health care services and develops a treatment plan tailored specifically for you taking into account your health history and lifestyle.
Primary care includes:
Annual physical check-ups
Preventive health screening
Vaccinations and immunizations
Blood pressure monitoring
Diabetes management
High cholesterol treatment
Services related to women's health
School and sport physical check-up
Management of chronic diseases
Sick visits
Having one doctor who knows about your health history gives you the following benefits: more accurate diagnostics, better treatment options and improved results in the long run.
The Importance of Preventive Care
There are many serious health problems which may develop slowly but not show up any early symptoms. Routine visits and preventive health screening may help in detecting potential problems in time.
Preventive health screening may help in diagnosing:
High blood pressure
Diabetes
Diseases of heart
High cholesterol
Health problems related to obesity
Mental health issues
Early diagnosis usually implies simple treatments, less complications and lower cost of health care services.
Chronic Disease Management
According to the statistics millions of Americans suffer from some kinds of chronic diseases like diabetes, hypertension and high cholesterol. Chronic diseases require frequent monitoring, medications, lifestyle modification and constant communications with your health care provider.
Family medicine physicians work very closely with patients creating personal plans in order to minimize the chances of any complications and improve quality of life of the patient.
In Siddiqui Family Medicine we have experienced medical team to provide you with assistance in management of chronic diseases and improvement of your lifestyle.
Comprehensive Healthcare for the Whole Family
Family medicine provides services for nearly every age group of people. Family medicine makes it easy for families to get all their health care services from one medical practice: from school physicals to preventive health care and from adults' wellness visits to senior health care services.
