Chronic Disease Management

Yes, we provide comprehensive chronic disease management including medication adjustments, regular monitoring, and treatment for complications. While we recommend maintaining a relationship with a primary care physician for long-term coordination, our medical providers can help manage your condition between appointments or when your primary care provider is unavailable. We follow evidence-based protocols to ensure safe, effective care.

No appointment is necessary. We welcome walk-ins daily from 8am to 8pm at both our Palm Beach Gardens and Stuart locations. However, bringing your current medication list, recent lab results, and medical records helps us provide the most comprehensive care.

We manage a wide range of chronic conditions including diabetes (Type 1 and Type 2), hypertension, high cholesterol, asthma, COPD, thyroid disorders, and other ongoing medical conditions. Our medical providers follow current medical guidelines and can coordinate with your primary care physician to ensure continuity of care.

Yes, we can provide prescription refills for chronic disease medications after evaluating your current condition and reviewing your treatment plan. We'll assess whether your current medications are working effectively and make adjustments if needed. Prescriptions are sent electronically to your pharmacy for convenient pickup.

Monitoring frequency depends on your specific condition and how well controlled it is. According to medical guidelines, most chronic conditions require evaluation every 3-6 months, though some may need more frequent monitoring. We'll provide personalized recommendations based on your individual situation and coordinate with your primary care provider.

Please bring your photo ID, insurance card, current medication list (including dosages), recent lab results if available, blood glucose log or blood pressure readings if you monitor at home, and any questions or concerns about your condition. This information helps us provide comprehensive, coordinated care.

Yes, we can coordinate care with your primary care physician to ensure continuity of treatment. With your permission, we'll share visit summaries, lab results, and treatment plans with your regular doctor. This collaborative approach helps maintain consistent, high-quality care for your chronic condition.

Seek emergency care immediately for severe chest pain, difficulty breathing, stroke symptoms (facial drooping, arm weakness, speech difficulty), severe diabetic complications (extremely high or low blood sugar with confusion), or other life-threatening symptoms. Visit urgent care for medication adjustments, routine monitoring, mild symptom changes, or non-emergency complications of your chronic condition.
