Chronic Illness Care

Importance of Chronic Disease Care

Chronic medical conditions – like diabetes, heart disease, and COPD – are so common that nearly half of all Americans are believed to suffer from at least one chronic illness. As such, chronic conditions are a leading cause of death and disability in the U.S. Many have no cure and must be medically managed throughout a person’s life.

What makes chronic conditions particularly difficult to manage is that it often takes a variety of approaches to properly control a patient’s disease. For example, patients with diabetes may require medication, strict adherence to a recommended diet and exercise regimen, as well as regular preventive care measures, such as yearly eye and daily foot care and inspection, to avoid complications of the disease.

At North Bethesda Primary Care, Dr. Possner takes a whole-person, integrated care approach to chronic disease management. This includes regular screenings, checkups, patient education, and the coordination of care with subspecialists when necessary. Through his unique concierge doctor services, Dr. Possner takes the time to get to know you so that he can help keep you healthy despite any existing medical challenges.
