Navigating the healthcare system can feel complicated. You know you need a doctor, but where do you start? For most adults, the answer is adult primary care. This is your first stop and your long-term partner for staying healthy.

But not all primary care is the same. At PrevHealth, we are bringing a new, tech-enabled, and patient-centric approach to the community. If you’re new to primary care or just new to PrevHealth, here’s a simple guide to what you can expect.

What is Adult Primary Care?

Think of your adult primary care provider as the quarterback of your health team. This is the medical professional you see for:

• Preventive Care: Annual physicals, screenings, and immunizations to catch problems before they start.
• Acute Illness: Treating common sicknesses like the flu, infections, or minor injuries.
• Chronic Condition Management: Helping you manage long-term conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, or heart disease.
• Coordination: Referring you to specialists when you need one and managing the “big picture” of your health.

It’s not just about seeing a doctor when you’re sick. It’s about building a long-term relationship with a team that knows your history and your health goals.

The PrevHealth Difference: Local Care, Virtual Reach

We founded PrevHealth to break down barriers to care. We believe in “Local Care with Virtual Reach.” This means we use a modern, hybrid model that combines the best of in-person care with the power of technology.

Our goal is simple: to provide accessible, proactive services that improve your health outcomes and reduce the need for hospitalizations.

What to Expect at Your PrevHealth Visit

From the moment you connect with us, you’ll notice our patient-centric approach. Here’s what your care journey will look like.

1. In-Clinic Consultations

When you visit our Burke clinic, you’ll meet with our experienced team, which includes dedicated Nurse Practitioners and virtual specialists. Your first visit is more than just a 10-minute check-up. We’ll take the time to:

• Review your complete medical history.
• Discuss any current symptoms or concerns.
• Understand your lifestyle and health goals.
• Perform a comprehensive exam.

2. Tech-Enabled Support

Your care doesn’t stop when you leave the clinic. We use advanced technology to support you 24/7. This includes:

• Smart Patient Portal: Get easy access to your health data, test results, and care team.
• Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM): For certain conditions, we use smart monitoring devices to track your health from the comfort of your home. This allows us to intervene before a small issue becomes a big problem.
• Chronic Care Management (CCM): If you have a long-term condition, our team provides ongoing support and coordination to help you manage it effectively.

3. A Focus on Patient Education

We don’t just treat conditions, we help you understand them. A key part of our mission is providing you with clear, accessible information. We want you to feel empowered and in control of your health decisions.

Every adult.

Whether you’re in perfect health and just need an annual check-up, or you’re managing multiple chronic conditions, a dedicated primary care team is essential. We provide comprehensive care for adults of all ages, helping you navigate every stage of your health journey.
