primary physician :: Article Creator Primary Care In Crisis: A Physician's Take On Reform Source: Imtmphoto/Shutterstock This blog reviews how the role of primary care practice has diminished greatly over the past 40 years. When I became a physician in the 1980's primary care medicine entailed a physician specializing in pediatrics, family medicine, or internal medicine who served as the main point of contact for a panel of patients. The primary care physician evaluated patients for their annual check-ups, monitored patients with chronic conditions, and was also available for same-day or same-week visits when someone was sick. The primary care physician was able to address more than 90% of the care of sick patients in their clinic, and occasionally would refer patients for evaluation by a specialist.

annual well woman visit :: Article Creator Well-Woman Exam What Is a Well-Woman Exam? A well-woman exam—also known as a women's wellness exam—is a routine checkup with a women's health provider.

adult measles :: Article Creator Do You Need A Measles Booster Shot? The Answer May Surprise You Measles has been making an unwelcome comeback in the U.S. And world lately. Its resurgence might be enough to make many of us reasonably wonder: Just how protected am I from measles? And should I think about getting a booster vaccine shot? It's important to emphasize that the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine is highly effective—providing 97% protection from measles with the standard two-shot series. Most Americans have and are still getting vaccinated with the MMR vaccine, thanks to routine childhood programs that were established nationwide starting in the 1980s. These programs require children to receive several vaccines to attend public school, but families can obtain medical or personal exemptions depending on the state. As of the 2023-2024 school year, roughly 93% of school-age children in the U.S. Have received their MMR shots. Tha...
