Ms. J, an 89 year old woman, feels overwhelmed by her medical care. She has a number of different medical problems with 4 different specialists involved in her care and takes what she believes to be too many medications, none of which make her feel any better. Doctors don’t listen to her when she tells them her worries and they rush her out the door when the appointment is over. Because of all of these challenges, Ms. J hasn’t seen a doctor in 2 years.
We created Welcome Health for people like Ms. J because we believe that seniors deserve better healthcare. In the current landscape of primary care, most older people receive traditional one-size-fits-all healthcare. This internal medicine-based primary care approach treats specific diseases without considering how those diseases, and the treatments of those diseases, affect each person’s quality of life. Specifically designed for seniors, Welcome Health is different. Grounded in the art and science of geriatric medicine, Welcome Health delivers holistic, whole-person care balancing treatment of disease with quality of life, physical function, and what matters most to each person. Welcome health prioritizes our patients’ convenience, concerns, and personal goals.
Welcome Health specializing in healthy aging. We offer visits in the clinic, virtually, and in home.
