Conveniently located in your community

Our MedStar Health primary care practices feature state-of-the-art amenities and are conveniently located to provide a comprehensive and collaborative approach to health care.

What are the benefits to having a primary care physician?
Someone who knows you. Establishing a relationship with your primary care doctor is important. Getting to know your doctor allows you to build confidence and trust that will help you to talk openly about health issues and concerns.

Coordinated care. Your primary care doctor is your home base. They know about your medications, surgeries, scheduled tests, and results. They will work with specialists as needed to support your treatment and care plan. Keeps you healthy. Your doctor doesn’t just want to see you when you are sick. They want to partner with you and see you regularly to create a prevention plan just for you.

Scheduled screenings. Your primary care doctor will schedule tests/screenings and review results to identify health concerns. Most illnesses, when caught early, have more successful treatment options available.
Why choose a MedStar Health primary care physician?
Quality, compassionate primary care for you and your family
