Primary Care
Annual Physical Exams
Annual checkups are the cornerstone of primary medical care.
During this yearly visit, we will review the state of your health, lifestyle, current medical conditions and medications. We also check your vital signs and perform a thorough physical exam. Lab work, health screenings and vaccinations will be offered depending on age and risk factors.
Acute Illnesses
As your primary care physicians, we can treat a wide variety of common illnesses like:
- Respiratory infections
i.e. COVID, flu, asthma exacerbation
- Gastrointestinal infections
i.e. traveler’s diarrhea, diverticulitis
- Urinary infections
i.e. UTIs, kidney stones
- Skin infections
i.e. rashes, shingles, contact dermatitis
- Body aches and pains.
These are just some of the conditions we can diagnose and treat.
Remember
The earlier you seek medical care, the better your chances for a speedy recovery.
Chronic Disease Management
If you have a history of diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, thyroid disease, or any chronic conditions, you should see us more often than once-per-year.
In fact, let's meet soon to discuss your current state of health, review medications, and optimize lifestyle choices.
Medical Weight Loss
Medically supervised weight loss is the process of losing weight with the help and guidance of a healthcare professional. We follow a multidisciplinary approach including behavioral modifications, nutritional counseling, and weight loss medications for our medical weight loss patients.
Key behaviors that influence weight loss are eating foods that are lower in energy and having a higher level of activity. Nutritional counseling will help you develop healthier eating habits. Lastly, when lifestyle changes aren’t enough to help shed the excess weight, we may suggest adding an FDA-approved counseling will be provided but, prescription weight-loss medicine to your program. From oral appetite suppressants to injectables.
We will tailor, the program to you and support you throughout the process.
Important
To discuss mammogram and pap smears with your doctor.
Women's Health
As women, we have unique health needs. Many conditions and diseases develop different symptoms in women. Also, your health needs change from young adulthood to reproductive years and beyond. From caring for your own body to the care you give others, you deserve the best in women’s health services.
At Vento MD, we are committed to provide you with quality care through every stage of your life. For that matter, we will discuss pap smear, mammogram and/or bone density screenings depending on your age and risk factors. We also provide guidance on contraceptive choices and any family planning questions you may have. Lastly, if you need treatment for UTIs, STDs, menopause symptoms, osteoporosis, etc.; we can help!
Men's Health
Men are statistically much less likely than women to seek medical care. And many men do not have a primary care doctor, someone who can be a trusted source for healthcare information and care.
We can diagnose and treat conditions such as low testosterone, erectile dysfunction and even depression/anxiety. Guidelines for screening of prostate, colorectal and lung cancer will be discussed as well.
Geriatric Care
We specialize in the assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and management of elderly patients with complex medical conditions. Diseases like mental decline, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, arthritis, back problems, insomnia, osteoporosis etc. can derail the quality of life of our senior population. As such, we like to treat our patients by focusing on their medical conditions together with their psychosocial situation.
Mental Health
We believe in a comprehensive approach to care. Therefore, we focus on the mental health as much as on the physical health. We can offer treatment for anxiety and depression. And we can even suggest therapy and/or behavioral changes to reduce stress.
