General Practitioners

• Medical Weight Loss
  The medical weight loss program at Fast Access Healthcare is based on sensible diet practices with realistic goals. However, it’s not a fad diet. The staff at Fast Access Healthcare aims to go the extra mile, especially when it comes to helping you lose the weight.
• Nutritional Counseling
  Besides diet and nutrition counseling, the doctors at Fast Access Healthcare may also prescribe medication to help you reach your weight loss goals. Why don’t fad diets work? Fad diets don’t work because they don’t teach you how to eat right for the rest of your life.

Gynecologists

• Gynecology
  Fast Access Healthcare does general gynecology, pap smears, and STD screening.  While doing preventive care and wellness exams, we always keep up with breast screening exams and make the appropriate referral. Throughout the year, we coordinate to bring a mammogram bus onsite to various locations.  This gives the ease and simplicity to coordinate your primary care appointments with your breast exam.  When there is no medical issue, it can make it much easier and more comfortable to see the same doctor for all your needs.
