Family Medicine

Family medicine is a branch of medicine that provides comprehensive health care for the whole family, from newborns to the elderly. Family medicine physicians provide preventive care, diagnosis and treatment of common diseases, and management of chronic illnesses.

  • Chronic Disease Management - We manage chronic diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, and asthma by working with you to develop a treatment plan that fits your needs.
  • Physicals - We offer sports physicals, school physicals, and other types of physical exams as needed.
  • Vaccinations - We provide all the recommended vaccinations for children, adults, and seniors.

Our family physicians' dedication to detail, personal attention, and close follow-up set you up for success as an Epic Medical patient. We believe that health care providers should be guides for our patients while they navigate lifestyle choices and form good habits.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should women be seen for women's health care?

The answer to this question varies, as it depends on many factors, such as your age, health history, and family history. However, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends that women have a yearly well-woman visit with their primary care provider. This visit is an opportunity to discuss any concerns you may have about your health and to receive preventive screenings, such as a Pap test for cervical cancer. Your Epic Medical physician may also recommend more frequent visits if you have certain risk factors for certain conditions, such as breast cancer.

How often should men be seen for men's health care?

Similar to women, the answer to this question depends on many factors. However, the American Urological Association recommends that men have a yearly check-up with their physician starting at age 40. This visit is an opportunity to discuss any concerns you may have about your health and to receive preventive screenings, such as a blood test for prostate cancer. Your physician may also recommend more frequent visits if you have certain risk factors for certain conditions.

How do I know if I need to find a sports medicine doctor instead of a family doctor near me?

Your Epic Medical family doctor is often the best place to start when you have a health concern. They can provide a diagnosis and treatment for many common conditions. Then, if you have an injury or illness that requires specialized care, your family physician will refer you to a specialist. The sports medicine specialists at Epic Medical are trained to diagnose and treat injuries and illnesses related to physical activity and exercise. They also work with athletes to help them prevent injuries and improve their performance.
