Primary Care Q&A

Is primary care necessary if I’m in good health?

Yes. Primary care is an essential component of healthy living.

Just because you feel good and have lots of energy doesn’t necessarily mean you’re in optimal health. Many chronic conditions, like high blood pressure, hypertension and diabetes, develop slowly and present few obvious symptoms.

The Aletheia Integrative team uses primary care to treat injuries, screen for diseases, educate patients on healthy living, and coordinate care between specialists.

What services does primary care provide?

The Aletheia Integrative team offers various primary care services, including:

Employee wellness programs

An employee wellness program is one of the easiest ways to ensure your team members stay healthy. The Aletheia Integrative team regularly partners with small businesses in the area to reduce work-related injuries and illnesses and promote health and well-being.

Vaccinations

Vaccinations teach your immune system how to identify and protect itself from harmful invaders, like viruses and bacteria. We offer a customized, flexible vaccine plan for you and your family.

Physical exams

A physical exam assesses all aspects of your general health, from head to toe. Your Aletheia Integrative provider weighs and measures you, checks your vital signs, and completes an exam. They also order lab testing and complete sex-specific screenings.

Preventive screenings

Preventing screenings; like Pap tests, breast and prostate exams and thermography, try to catch certain types of cancer early on when they respond to treatment. Aletheia Integrative completes most screenings onsite, but they can refer you to a nearby radiology facility if you need a mammogram or a colonoscopy.

Lab work

Lab work, like blood testing and urinalysis, analyzes bodily fluid samples to gain insights into your health. These tests help identify underlying issues like high cholesterol, diabetes, and hormonal imbalances.

What is a direct primary care program?

The Aletheia Integrative team offers primary care through a direct primary care model. Direct primary care (DPC) is a care model where patients pay a small monthly or annual fee. Paying the DPC fee gives you 24/7 access to the Aletheia Integrative team.

You can receive acute care for minor illnesses and injuries, health counseling, or chronic care management. In other words, it provides access to medical care exactly when you need it.
