What is primary care?

Primary care includes medical services to diagnose and treat acute illnesses and injuries. Working with a primary care provider also gives you access to preventive health services that reduce your risk for heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and other chronic diseases.

Health Meets Wellness offers a range of primary care services for adults aged 18 and over. The experienced medical team takes a whole-person approach to care, blending internal medicine with functional medicine to identify the root cause of your illness rather than just masking your symptoms.

In addition to in-office visits, the primary care team also meets with individuals virtually through an online telemedicine platform. 

What primary care services are available?

Health Meets Wellness provides a range of primary care and preventive care services in-office through a concierge membership plan. Individuals can also access high-quality primary care services without signing up as a member.

• Annual physicals
• Immunizations
• Flu and strep tests
• Gynecological exams
• Nutritional counseling
• Holistic health coaching
• Diagnostic lab tests

Specialized labs like gut microbiome testing, hormone testing, and nutrient and vitamin level testing are also available in the office.

Members of the annual concierge plan have access to weight management resources that support safe, effective weight loss. Additionally, a digital platform contains a variety of meal plans, nutritional guidance, exercise routines, and yoga and meditation practices that support your physical, emotional, and mental health.

What can I expect during my initial primary care visit?

During your initial primary care visit at Health Meets Wellness, you meet with your wellness team for a comprehensive health assessment.

The team includes your physician, dietitian, health coach, and care coordinator, who all work together to evaluate your medical history and existing health. They use data from biometric assessments, diagnostic testing, and a physical exam to assess your health and wellness needs.

If you’re visiting for an illness or injury, the team customizes a care plan to ease your symptoms and ensure your full recovery. They can prescribe medications, recommend nutritional supplements, and suggest other strategies to help you feel better fast.

Preventive primary care visits include a comprehensive health assessment, preventative screenings, and other services to identify warning signs of disease in the earliest stage. Women can also have a pelvic and breast exam, Pap smear, and other screenings to assess their reproductive health.
