Primary care physicians are qualified to diagnose and treat any general or common conditions that may arise throughout your lifetime. Some commonly treated conditions include diabetes, asthma, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, and much more. They are also able to assess the general health condition of their patients and provide recommendations or support for care such as medical weight loss or cosmetic procedures. A large proponent of their role is to also provide preventative care for their patients, so part of treating these common conditions is by addressing any indicative symptoms that may develop into more severe conditions, and to do their best to manage or slow down the progression of these conditions. Patients who are also suffering from illnesses such as COVID-19, the influenza, a common cold, or more can seek medical attention from primary care physicians to ensure that any severe symptoms are managed properly to allow for a complete recovery.
