Family Medicine Specialist

What is family medicine?

Family medicine practices offer general medical care for people of all ages, meaning you and your family members can attend the same practice for primary care. South Texas Family Medicine and Urgent Care Center offers a wide range of services for your convenience that can help you improve, maintain, or learn more about your health.

Family medicine is closely linked to primary care and includes dermatology, women’s health, mental health, and other topics.

What are the benefits of having a family medicine practitioner?

Choosing a family medicine practice for your family offers benefits that other general practices can’t provide. A few noteworthy benefits of family medicine are:

• Familiarity with your family and lifestyle
• Age-specific care for all family members
• Practitioners who get to know your medical history
• Long-standing relationship with your practitioner
• Individualized care from a practitioner who is familiar with you and your family
• Specialist referrals from a practitioner you trust

The team at South Texas Family Medicine and Urgent Care Center boasts training in a broad range of medical specialties, so they’re able to offer many services in-office for your convenience. That means fewer visits for you and your family to other medical practices and hospitals.
