What is primary care?

Primary care is your main form of health care. As your primary care provider, Dr. Aguirre is your first point of contact whether you feel sick, have an ongoing health concern, or need a preventive screening. She acts as your partner in health care to prevent disease and illness as you age.

Which services can a primary care doctor provide?

Dr. Aguirre performs a broad range of primary care services at Genesis Health and Beauty Bar, such as:

Acute illness and injury care

An acute illness or injury is any health concern that occurs quickly, usually within hours to days. Dr. Aguirre can diagnose and treat sore throats, sinus infections, allergies, deep cuts, and other acute health concerns promptly. 

Chronic disease management

Chronic diseases usually develop over time and last for three months or longer. Diabetes, hypertension (high blood pressure), and arthritis are examples of chronic diseases that require ongoing care. Dr. Aguirre’s goal is to manage your condition and prevent complications through routine screenings, lifestyle changes, and medication when necessary.

Immunizations

Immunizations protect you and your community from infectious diseases, such as chickenpox, influenza (flu), and COVID-19. Dr. Aguirre DO provides immunizations, or vaccinations, for children and adults.

Preventive health screenings

Preventive health screenings check for signs of disease when you aren’t showing symptoms. They allow Dr. Aguirre DO to regularly evaluate your health and intervene when necessary to prevent chronic disease and illness.

Specialist referrals and lab work

To investigate your symptoms and provide further testing, Dr. Aguirre DO may refer you to a specialist or order lab work, such as blood tests, urinalysis, or X-rays.
