What role do family doctors play in keeping us healthy?
Primary care physicians play an important role in maintaining the health of their patients. We focus on prevention and wellness, identifying health risks, coordinating overall care, and serving as a resource for health-related needs.
How often should I see my doctor and why?
This depends on the patient’s age, overall health, and whether or not they are unwell. If you need same-day care, we offer many same-day appointments to established patients with primary care providers. FastCare also offers many other same-day care options when same-day appointments are not available.® Retail clinic or urgent care clinic. However, that being said, it is not always necessary to see a doctor in person. For your comfort and convenience, Froedtert & MCW also offers many virtual care options.
What are the benefits of choosing care through the Froedtert & MCW Health Network?
