- DPDaphne PereiraJan 23, 20255.0I met my gastrointestinal dr. Today. Dr. Gary Trey. I cannot emphasize how nervous I was meeting a new dr. But let me tell you. How comfortable and relaxed he made me feel. He answered any questions I had and explained everything to me. If I could give him 10 stars I would. I felt I could tell him anything without being uncomfortable. I would recommend him to anyone
- ASAnna SilvaJan 22, 20255.0I normally don't write reviews and this is only the second time in my life I've taken the time to write one.. However, I feel it's the very least I could do to express my gratitude for the care I received by Ms Heidi Resendes NP at my most recent Gastro appointment. Ms. Resendes genuinely went above and beyond to reassure me that she was going to do everything she could to help me and see that I would receive the best care... And that I did, definitely!! If you are looking for a physician that listens and genuinely cares about all your concerns, please see her.. She sat, listened and addressed my concerns while never once making me feel rushed, even though she had all her rooms filled with patients waiting to be seen...I can't thank her enough for being so kind and compassionate toward me and all my family members that she also sees.. Not only is she smart and extremely knowledgeable in her field of practice but she also has superb bedside manners...
Frequently Asked Questions About Prima CARE Gastroenterology
What Is An Internal Medicine Doctor?
An Internal Medicine doctor (also known as an internist) is a physician who is trained to apply scientific knowledge and clinical experience to treat adults with various medical conditions. An Internist promotes health and provides preventive care, screens for diseases like cancer, diagnoses complex medical problems, and treats acute and chronic diseases. An Internist provides general Primary Care, and typically managing diseases like heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, and lung disease, sometimes with the help of a specialty consultant.
What Is a Family Medicine Doctor?
A Family Medicine doctor is a physician who is specially trained to provide continuing and comprehensive medical care, health maintenance, and preventive care to each member of the family, regardless of gender, age, or type of problem. Family physicians treat both acute and chronic medical conditions along with psychosocial issues, emphasizing the care of the whole person as an individual. These specialists, because of their background and interactions with the family, are best-qualified to serve as each patient's advocate in all health-related matters, including the appropriate use of consultants, health services, and community resources.
What’s The Difference Between Family Medicine and Internal Medicine?
One difference is that while internists treat patients aged 18 and over, family medicine practitioners may see patients of all ages. Both types of physician provide Primary Care and preventive medicine, and both are qualified to manage a wide variety of medical conditions. Some Internal Medicine physicians are also trained in a medical subspecialty or in the complexities of hospital-based care, while Family Medicine physicians emphasize wellness and disease prevention in the outpatient setting. Internists and Family Medicine physicians have unique skills and interests, but complement each other as part of a complete health care team.
Why Is It Important to Have a Yearly Physical?
The best type of medicine is preventative. Annual physicals enable patients to:
Prevent health problems
Update vaccinations
Review/renew prescription medication
Receive ‘lifestyle coaching’ (or advice on how to maintain a strong, healthy body)
