At WestsideMed, we believe primary care is the foundation of long-term health. Millions of Georgians live with chronic conditions like diabetes, hypertension, asthma, and heart disease, and many of these conditions can be managed more effectively with regular primary care visits.

Primary care is more than just checkups — it’s about prevention, early detection, and ongoing support. Whether you’re newly diagnosed or have been living with a condition for years, your primary care provider helps coordinate medications, monitor progress, and guide lifestyle changes that improve quality of life.

The most common chronic conditions we manage in primary care include:

With primary care, you don’t just treat symptoms — you get a trusted partner in your health journey. At WestsideMed, our primary care providers create personalized care plans, track your results, and collaborate with specialists when needed. This continuity of primary care means less time repeating your story and more time focusing on feeling your best.

Effective primary care also emphasizes prevention. From regular screenings to lifestyle counseling, our primary care team helps reduce hospital visits, slow disease progression, and empower you to take control of your health.

If you or a loved one is living with a chronic condition, choose WestsideMed’s primary care team for compassionate, consistent, and patient-focused care. Together, we’ll create a plan that keeps you healthier, longer.
