- Medical Weight LossDiabetes is a chronic disease that impairs the body’s ability to use blood sugar. There is a growing concern about diabetes because it is being diagnosed in more people every year. Prolonged exposure to high blood sugar levels damages nerves and blood vessels. Over time, this can lead to heart attack, stroke, kidney failure, blindness and neuropathy. Although diabetes cannot usually be cured, it can be treated and the complications can be prevented. Weight loss, regular exercise, changing diet, and taking medications can all improve diabetes. Treating diabetes can be complicated. It requires frequent monitoring and a high level of attention. At Dillon Internal Medicine, we are prepared to help you diagnose, treat, and manage diabetes and all of its associated conditions.
- Pediatric CareTo earn recognition, which is valid for three years, Dillon Internal Medicine Associates, PA demonstrated the ability to meet the program's key elements, embodying characteristics of the medical home. NCQA standards aligned with the joint principles of the Patient-Centered Medical Home established with the American College of Physicians, the American Academy of Family Physicians, the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Osteopathic Association.
- Primary CareThe NCQA Patient-Centered Medical Home is a model of primary care that combines teamwork and information technology to improve care, improve patients' experience of care and reduce costs. Medical homes foster ongoing partnerships between patients and their personal clinicians, instead of approaching care as the sum of episodic office visits. Each patient's care is overseen by clinician-led care teams that coordinate treatment across the health care system. Research shows that medical homes can lead to higher quality and lower costs, and can improve patient and provider reported experiences of care.
