Prevention

The goal of prevention-based medicine is to keep healthy people healthy and help those with risk factors avoid unnecessary doctor’s office or emergency room visits. Because each person has a completely unique set of preferences, genes, and habits, we focus preventative measures and health maintenance on an individual level.

We start by taking each employee through a confidential health risk assessment to understand lifestyle factors that might be affecting their health. Then we do a health screening that measures blood pressure, weight, blood sugar, and cholesterol levels to see if there’s any indication of potential health risks, and to set a baseline for improvement. Through a combination of risk reduction coaching, disease management, and individual or group education programs, we help people make long-lasting lifestyle changes that will preserve or improve their health status into the future.
