It’s important to have a primary care physician. They get to know you, your history and your family health history. Building a long-term relationship with your PCP can translate to major health benefits over your lifetime, such as lower overall health costs, a decrease in hospital and ER visits, and better management of chronic diseases.

Be open and honest with your physician regarding what’s going on with your health. Don’t hold back if something is bothering you.

• Are you experiencing painful or uncomfortable symptoms that interfere with your daily life? 
• Is a medication you’re taking making you feel sick?
• Do you need help with making healthy decisions or lifestyle choices?
• Are you having problems sleeping or with your marriage or children?
• Are you experiencing stress, depression or sadness? 

All of these factors can impact your health.

Primary care physicians fall into one of three categories:  family medicine doctors, internal medicine doctors and pediatricians.

• An internal medicine doctor cares for adults. 
• A pediatrician cares for children. 
• A family medicine doctor, also known as a family practitioner, is both a pediatrician and an internal medicine doctor combined into one specialty. They care for both children and adults.
