A primary care physician, or primary care doctor, is your first stop when you are sick or in need of healthcare services—including your annual physical, immunizations, prescription refills, cold or flu symptoms, a sore throat, minor injuries, back pain or even suspected broken bones.
Your primary care doctor also makes sure you are up to date on your preventive health services such as mammograms or colorectal screenings.
Especially when it comes to chronic conditions, like diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol or congestive heart failure, your primary care doctor is the one who provides the frequent monitoring and consistent voice in your care. Find a list of all of our primary care clinics in Texas.
