Family Medicine

Family Physicians are uniquely qualified to care for the "whole person," integrating care for patients across the full spectrum of ages. The Family Physician functions as the patient's point of entry into the health care system and are advocates for patients. Continuity of care is the hallmark of family medicine. You and your family will be able to see the same physician throughout your lifetime.

Family physicians complete a three-year residency program after graduating from medical school. As part of their residency, they provide care to patients in both hospital and office settings. Family physicians receive training in pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology, internal medicine, geriatrics, psychiatry, neurology, surgery, and community medicine and are recertified for their medical accreditation more than any other medical specialty.

Family practice doctors Priscilla Glezen-Schneider, Jennifer May-Ortiz, and John Duryee are now also providing state of the art laser technology treatments for your aesthetic and Cosmetic Care needs. Laser technology helps you to keep looking younger and more beautiful without surgery. For more information see our,
