When should I schedule a sick visit?

You should schedule a sick visit at Restoration Primary Care PLLC, if you’re experiencing sudden or unusual symptoms that aren’t improving with rest, over-the-counter (OTC) medication, or home remedies.

For more severe symptoms, like chest pain, slurred speech, or fever with a rash, or if you have injuries like severe burns, dislocations, or lacerations, seek immediate treatment at a hospital emergency room.

What happens during a sick visit?

When you come in for a sick visit, your provider reviews your medical history and symptoms. Restoration Primary Care PLLC can conduct your initial evaluation online through telehealth if you’re not feeling well enough to come to the office.

To get to the root of your symptoms, your provider might recommend lab tests like blood work or urinalysis. They’ll also perform a physical exam, including checking your blood pressure and evaluating your muscle strength and joint flexibility.

Your provider creates a personalized treatment plan based on your evaluation, including medications to relieve pain, reduce fever, and/or treat infections. They’ll also advise you on managing symptoms at home, including staying hydrated, resting, and adjusting your diet.

Restoration Primary Care PLLC, can schedule follow-ups in-office or through telehealth to track your progress and ensure that you’re on the mend.
