Family medicine is a branch of healthcare that addresses the comprehensive medical needs of individuals and families of all ages, genders, and parts of the body. A family medicine doctor is a kind of primary care physician who provides general medical care and coordinates specialty care for patients from childhood through adulthood. With an emphasis on preventive care, early diagnosis, and timely treatment, family medicine aims to improve the quality of life for everyone in the family.

Chronic diseases are long-lasting medical conditions that often require ongoing management. These conditions can significantly impact a person's quality of life and may include conditions like diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, and more. Managing chronic diseases involves regular monitoring, lifestyle adjustments, medication, and continuous care from healthcare professionals.

Behavioral health refers to how our behaviors impact our overall mental and physical well-being. It encompasses a spectrum of issues including, but not limited to, anxiety, depression, stress, and other mental health disorders. These issues can significantly affect a person's daily life, relationships, work, and overall health. Addressing behavioral health is crucial for achieving a balanced and healthy life.

From a pesky skin tag that just won't go away to a painful abscess that needs to be drained, a visit to your primary care provider can save you time and money by taking care of minor procedures in the office.

At Washington Health Partners, we are proud to offer a comprehensive suite of in-office procedures tailored to meet our patients' needs efficiently and comfortably.
