The Importance of Wellcare

How wellcare visits from your doctors in Brandon can help you stay healthy

If you want to be healthy and avoid minor or major medical conditions, wellcare visits are vitally important. Regular wellcare visits with yourwell care doctor can prevent minor medical issues from becoming serious medical problems. Drs. Joel and Elizabeth Biggers at Biggers Family Medicine in Brandon, FL, want to share the importance of wellcare visits.

At Biggers Family Medicine, your doctors practice a holistic approach to medicine, focusing on your body as an integrated organism, with mutually dependent parts. Medical treatment is proactive, to help you learn how to prevent medical issues before they occur.

Holistic healthcare combines many different treatment options, as well as stress evaluation to determine how much daily stress you and your body are trying to handle.

In addition to practicing general medicine, osteopathic medicine doctors may also specialize in areas including women’s health, cardiology, and other areas.

Routine physical examinations each year should be part of your healthcare regimen. Your doctor will record baseline information about your medical history, current medications, blood pressure, lifestyle, and other vital general information. This is an excellent time for you to discuss your healthcare concerns and establish a preventive treatment plan to maintain your health.

Both your initial wellcare examination and subsequent check-ups are a vital way to protect your health and guard against serious diseases including diabetes, cancer, heart disease, and other medical problems. Discussing diet, lifestyle, stress, family life, work life, and environmental issues can give you and your doctor a clearer picture and idea of how to keep you healthy.

Wellcare visits are only one of the many services offered at Biggers Family Medicine. Your doctors also:

  • Treat muscle, tendon, and ligament strains and sprains
  • Treat infections of the urinary tract, skin, and other areas
  • Perform physicals for work, sports, school, or other reasons
  • Screen for high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and diabetes
  • Treat acute and chronic pain from various causes
