Physically, it’s an easy process to get screened. It’s typically a simple blood or urine test, and in some cases a pap smear for women. So call us today and get peace of mind.

It’s reassuring that there is such a focus nowadays on preventive care and being proactive when it comes to health care. There was a time not all that long ago when it was considered okay by many people to visit their primary care doctor only when there was a problem to be taken care of. Universal annual physical exams, though, have become the new normal. And that’s a very good thing. So many health issues can be handled before they lead to serious consequences, providing that they are caught in a timely manner. It’s something that we at Soho Health- Fagelman are committed to.

As advancement in the understanding of how different things affect the body make   achieving high levels of health more attainable than ever, changes are made to where the line is for certain common testing. For example, what used to be considered good blood pressure is now thought of as borderline high. These new guidelines aren’t arbitrary. They prevent disease, and they save lives. The same is true of cholesterol numbers and others, such as blood glucose. Our Midtown NY medical checkup is thorough, and while there are baseline aspects that are applicable to everyone, your visit will be tailored to your specific concerns, including those related to your medical history and heredity. Those who are more prone to heart disease or diabetes, for just two examples, may need closer scrutiny.  Our Midtown NY medical checkup also is based on asking questions; both the ones you have for our doctor, and the ones that our doctor has for you. If any follow-up care, including the need for a specialist, is indicated after your examination, you’ll be advised accordingly.
Make certain that you are taking control of your health. Call us or use the handy messaging app on our homepage to schedule an appointment for our Midtown NY medical checkup.

Midtown NYC STD Treatment

Believe it or not…STDs aren’t something you can immediately notice. So, if you’re sexually active, it’s important to take a cautionary approach to your health by regularly getting Midtown NYC STD treatment. A decision that impacts not just your life, but as well as your partners. In which case, don’t hesitate to contact Soho Health – Fagelman.

It isn’t a newsflash to state that STDs are incredibly common. So always err on the side of caution. Don’t assume that just because a partner isn’t displaying symptoms, that they aren’t inflicted by something. In fact, some of the most common STDs are the ones you don’t even see. Which ones are those? The Human Papillomma Virus (HPV for short) is by far the most common out there. Not only that, it’s also quite easy to get. Condoms are not a 100% safeguard against them. Most folks who have this virus spend most of their lives without knowing they have it. Chlamydia is another sneaky type of STI, usually found within women under 25. Roughly one out of every six people between the ages of 14 and 49 years old (in the U.S.) have genital herpes. But here’s the kicker. Around 90% of folks with herpes simplex 2 are next diagnosed. So in a nutshell, it’s best not to play guessing games with your body. And it’s especially pivotal to be cautious with sexual partners. Visit Soho Health – Fagelman soon and get a proper Midtown NYC STD – treatment. It’s the responsible thing to do.

Don’t waste another precious second dawdling in uncertainty. If you’re already dealing with an STD, seek out Soho Health – Fagelman. Call or shoot us an e-mail. Choose whichever method to schedule an appointment for Midtown NYC STD treatment. Simple, straightforward—that’s all there is to it. Reach out today.

Colds and coughs can grind your productivity to a halt, and have you bedridden. Your schedule is way to busy for that, so turn to us at the office of Soho Health- Fagelman for prompt, same day care.

What are your symptoms? You might have a runny nose, stuffiness, frequent sneezing, or watery eyes, among others. Coughs can be mild to persistent to violent. Either may be accompanied by a sore throat. The simple fact is that you can never be 100% sure if you “just” have a good, or whether the problem is more alarming, such as flu, bronchitis, or even pneumonia. If you have an underlying issue, such as asthma or some other pulmonary condition, it is even more vital that you avail yourself of our internal medicine in Midtown NY right away. But regardless of that, even a cold without any other complications can sideline you for anywhere from a few days to a lot longer. When you have a cold, everyone avoids you. At work, you may even get dirty looks from people who don’t want to become infected. Instead of going to work, go to our office and benefit from our internal medicine in Midtown NY. As part of the diagnostic process, a determination is made, with the help of testing, to find out if you have a bacterial infection, influenza, or a virus. Each is treated in a different way, and to get the desired outcome quickly, it’s essential to identify the issue at hand. Among the possible treatments are antibiotics, but that’s only if your illness is bacterial in nature. If your ailment cannot be treated with medication, at least you can often get something to make the symptoms less obvious, and to help you sleep.

Call our office and arrange a time to come in for our internal medicine in Midtown NY. Remember, we’ll make sure you can be seen same day.
