Health your way, with senior focused extras
Our senior care puts the focus where it belongs: on you. Your primary care provider (PCP) acts as your guide and partner. Your PCP will help you with specialty care referrals, medications, tests and treatments to keep you well.
Keep up with your health
We want to make sure you don’t feel rushed and have time to discuss any issues or ask any questions, so we can get to know you and your medical history -- that’s why we’re proud to offer longer first visits with your annual wellness visit. This extended visit is a full comprehensive, one-hour physical exam. It will give you the opportunity to get answers to all your questions. This exam also provides the opportunity to update your medical history. As part of the exam, we will review your medications and you may receive tests based on your individual needs.
Personalized care
We provide custom care for your unique health needs. Our care offerings include hundreds of health care providers, primary and preventive care to keep you healthy, flu and pneumonia shots, bone mineral density tests if needed, diagnostic services (EKGS), lab services (blood tests, urine tests, etc.) and radiology services (digital X-rays). Southwest Medical also offers priority access for our senior patients. Program highlights include direct access to the Senior Care Unit where you can make a same day appointment and get personalized access to your care team of providers.
