                      Primary Care


                      Having a primary care doctor is a key component of good health. Your primary care doctor helps coordinate all your care and serves as your personal health advocate, so it's important to establish a long-term relationship so your doctor is familiar with your history.

                      Primary care doctors at Merit Health Medical Group diagnose and treat a wide range of conditions, and work collaboratively with specialists and other health care professionals to deliver care. Your doctor can also help you stay healthy by offering preventive health information, as well as answer your questions about health concerns or issues.

                      Learn more about the primary care services offered at Merit Health Medical Group.
