Do you only go to the doctor when you’re sick? For many people, and for many reasons, getting medical help is a “last resort.” At QueensCare Health Centers, we want to help patients get the care they need and proactively take charge of their health. This is why our Primary Care services focus on quality and preventive care.
Primary care is the “first stop” in the health care journey. Adult primary care providers include General, Family and Internal Medicine physicians, as well as Nurse Practitioners. Supporting the providers is a team of clinical pharmacists, nurses and care coordinators, all ready to listen to your concerns and evaluate your wellbeing. They will help you understand your healthcare options.
“Preventive care” means taking steps to prevent disease before it happens. By seeing your provider often, you give them the chance to get to know you and your lifestyle. They can then suggest screenings, vaccinations, and tests that can provide a full picture of your health.
Being supported by a network of primary care providers builds trust and understanding. Because they know you, providers can give you the best care and quality of life. Our team of doctors, nurse practitioners, case managers, and pharmacists are ready to give you a medical “home” you can depend on.
