Most of us begin life in the hands of a primary health care provider: the doctor or midwife who delivered us, the pediatrician who immediately assessed our physical response to our first gulp of air, the nurses who warmed us up and prepared us for our debut with Mom and our source of nutrition.
Through the succeeding years the pediatrician or family physician supervised our health with physical assessments of our growth, immunizations, education, and advice. Then we became adults . . . for the most part, healthy adults . . . and we took charge of our lives and our bodies. Then things happen and we realize that it is economically prudent to remain healthy (or attempt to restore our health).
Fortunately, there are many resources for taking charge of our health. We offer some of the best here.
