FAQs
Primary care physicians (PCPs) direct and coordinate all aspects of your health care – physical, emotional and mental. They listen to your questions, assess symptoms, recommend treatment approaches, prescribe medication and refer you to the proper specialist when needed.
Your primary care physician can identify health issues in their early stages before they become major problems. They offer preventive care such as immunizations, regular imaging & lab testing, such as cholesterol, blood pressure, flu shots and cancer screenings, as well as diet and lifestyle advice to maintain or improve your health.
Seeing your physician once a year for a physical exam is an excellent way to manage your health. Many health insurance plans classify an annual physical as preventive care, and some plans cover preventive care services at no charge.
There are a number of factors to consider when selecting your primary care physician. Get opinions from people you trust: family members, friends and co-workers. Check your health plan to find out what physicians are in your plan, or “in-network.”
Once you have a list of potential names, do some research on each of the “candidates.” Chances are there are websites that have online profiles or videos of the physicians you’re considering. Ask yourself the following questions:
- Do you prefer a doctor’s office near your home or work?
- What are the office hours, and do they have weekend hours?
- Consider visiting the practice to meet the staff and get a feel for the environment. Are the people approachable, friendly and helpful?
- Can you schedule an appointment in a reasonable time period?
Most importantly, your primary care physician should be someone you trust – someone who listens to you and makes you feel comfortable when talking about your health issues.
