Medicine is becoming more focused on prevention rather than treatment. Why wait until a disease happens instead of avoiding it altogether? Preventing diseases will help patients live healthier and happier lives.
At Germantown Primary HealthCare, we realize that sickness is one of the things that drastically affects people. We’re prepared to dedicate all our time and effort into making sure you and your loved ones feel great and healthy.
At Germantown Primary HealthCare, we noticed that many people don’t know how often they should see their doctor. This makes preventive care less effective. Generally, how often you should visit your doctor depends mostly on your age.
Preventive care aims to prevent diseases or catch them early to treat them or lower their burden. A person with hypertension or diabetes might not know it until complications develop. Starting treatment for these conditions early can make a huge difference.
Cancer is another major focus. Catching tumors at a very early age before they grow and spread to other areas is one of our top priorities. The sooner cancer is diagnosed, the sooner treatment can begin. Early treatment means a much better prognosis.
At Germantown Primary HealthCare, we understand that going to the doctor isn’t always fun. It can be hard to take yourself, or a loved one, to the doctor’s office if you, or they, are feeling perfectly fine. We want you to keep feeling your best, which is why we value preventive care.
