Avail Health and Wellness proudly offers primary care to our valued patients in Mansfield, TX. Primary care is where an established ongoing relationship exists between a provider and a patient. This relationship is patient-centered with the goal of improving access to quality care and enhancing long-term health outcomes. Primary care is comprehensive care that focuses on the everyday health needs of the patient. A primary care provider (PCP) not only manages chronic health conditions but also encourages routine health maintenance examinations and physicals to prevent disease before it begins. Your PCP is often the first point of contact in the healthcare system and can assist you with accessing care with specialty providers if needed. If you're looking for a new PCP, consider Avail Health and Wellness. Call our office for more information.
Regular primary care lowers healthcare costs and ensures a superior standard of care, improving both quality and quantity of life. Patients with a PCP can rest assured that they have a healthcare advocate that will work with them and help them to achieve optimal health results.
