What is Primary Care?

Primary care is the day-to-day medical treatment a patient receives. Primary care is typically delivered through a doctor's office or a similar setting. This type of treatment encompasses nearly every health issue. If a particular symptom or problem is considered severe, the primary care provider will contact a specialist for further assistance.

Conditions that may be treated by a primary care provider include:

  • Infections
  • Injuries
  • Major health risks
  • General health problems
  • Men's health problems
  • Women's health problems

Primary care providers offer generalized care, but deal with patients frequently. Because of this, selecting a primary care provider is incredibly important. This medical provider will serve as the patient's ongoing medical support.

How Does Primary Care Work?

Primary care is typically based around an appointment structure. When a patient has a health concern, they schedule an appointment with the primary care provider. Some primary care includes regular visits or check-ups, particularly if a patient is on a new medication. If a more pressing health problem occurs, many primary care providers offer some type of urgent care.

Services that may be a part of primary care include:

These are just a small portion of the many treatments offered by primary care providers. Primary care typically encompasses all aspects of a patient's health. Primary care providers are often internists, meaning experts at diagnosing medical conditions. In these scenarios, if a serious problem is detected, the primary care provider can refer the patient to a specialist.
