Resources for Patients
In general internal medicine, we respect that patient care extends beyond office visits. We want to support your health not only when you are here to see us but also as you go about your daily life. We encourage you to contact your healthcare provider via MyChart if you have a question or concern about your health.
If your concerns are more broad than specific, and you just want to broaden your health education, then good for you! The resources below might be helpful to you as you pursue that journey. They were created with clinicians and health educators to help you make informed decisions about your health care.
