How Our Primary Care Providers Can Help You Live a Healthier Life

Everyone should have a primary care doctor they see regularly to keep their health in check. Your doctor is the first person you call when you have an illness, need an immunization, or want lifestyle advice on managing your weight.

A primary care doctor is your go-to for everything related to your physical and mental health and overall well-being. They evaluate your current health and assist you with planning how to maintain your wellness throughout your lifetime.

At Regenerative Medical Group, Dr. Bryn J. Henderson and Dr. John S. Farag provide primary care services to their patients in the Orange, California community. We offer various lifestyle and health programs so you can live your healthiest life. 

Understanding primary care

Primary care is the basis of your lifelong healthcare. It's the place you go for routine check-ups, illnesses, and preventive care. Primary care is where you go for non-emergent care and annual physical exams.

However, primary care is more than a once-per-year appointment; it's a long-term relationship you develop with your primary care doctor over the years of your life. You can talk to them about any physical problems, mental issues, and lifestyle tips you need to live your best life.

Primary care and your physical health

Many people think of primary care for your physical health, which is very accurate, but it's much more than that. It's a chance to evaluate every aspect of your body to ensure you avoid dangerous complications and health issues.

We assess your vital signs, including your blood pressure, pulse, respiratory rate, and oxygen level. That information gives us a starting point on your heart and lung health. From there, we evaluate your physical health, including lab work and joint and skin health.

The lab work gives us a better insight into your full-body health, including your risk for chronic health conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol. The sooner we discover your risk for these conditions, the sooner you can adjust your lifestyle to avoid these problems.

Prevention is a large part of primary care's physical health aspect. Immunizations, lifestyle tips, and maintenance exams are the best ways to stay on top of your health and wellness. We can also refer you to specialists if necessary to deal with specific problems.

Can primary care help my mental health?

Primary care isn't just for your physical health—we are also here to help with mental health struggles. Our team talks to you about mental wellness at each appointment to stay on top of how you feel emotionally and deal with life.

Our providers aim to develop relationships with all their patients and make it easy to discuss any difficulties you're dealing with. We can offer medications and referrals to psychiatrists, counselors, or psychologists for your needs.

We also provide a mind wellness program that aims to reduce anxiety and stress. It utilizes virtual reality and IV therapy to help you cope with everyday stressors and create a calm mind with simple lifestyle tips.

What primary care services do you offer?

At the Regenerative Medical Group, our providers aim to help you with anything you need to live a healthier life. We have a well-rounded option of therapies and programs that help you feel and look your best.

We provide regular physical exams to monitor you and your loved ones for chronic diseases and acute health problems. During these exams, we monitor your vital signs, lab work, and weight to provide you with tips and therapies to stay healthy as you age.

Our team also specializes in various chronic illnesses, including asthma, Lyme disease, and osteoporosis, to name a few. We give each patient customized care that may include any of the following:

Our team also offers various programs for our patients, addressing multiple health and wellness aspects. For instance, if you need or want to lose weight, we offer a medical weight loss program that gives you the structure and tools to safely reach your ideal weight.

We also have a stroke recovery program and a cancer support program for those recovering from strokes or undergoing cancer therapies. We designed each program to provide our patients with support and vital tools to overcome medical obstacles throughout every stage of life.

If you need educational materials for your condition, medications, or lifestyle tips to live healthier simply, we can help you with that, too.
