What conditions does a primary care provider treat?
Primary care providers diagnose and treat a wide range of health problems. Some are acute, meaning they start suddenly and get better in days or weeks, such as a sinus infection. Others are chronic, meaning they last a year or longer and need regular care, such as type 2 diabetes.
Texas Primary Care Associates focuses on the conditions most adults and families face. When a condition needs a specialist, your provider refers you and keeps coordinating your overall care.
