What should I expect during same-day appointments?

During same-day visits to Irving Coppell Primary Care and Pediatrics, your provider greets you and weighs you, evaluates your body mass index (BMI), and checks your blood pressure and other vital signs.

A family medicine specialist discusses your medications, symptoms, lifestyle habits, and medical history. They listen to your breathing and heartbeat, check your reflexes, and look for signs of health problems during a physical exam.

You might need a tissue swab, biopsy, urine test, blood test, heart-function testing, allergy tests, or lung-function testing. The practice has an in-house lab, providing many of these tests right in the office.

Your Irving Coppell Primary Care and Pediatrics provider may suggest X-rays or another imaging procedure to develop images of the inside of your body.

What are my same-day appointment treatment options?

Based on your diagnosis and treatment preferences, a provider might recommend making lifestyle changes, getting plenty of rest and fluids, icing an injury, or taking over-the-counter or prescription medicines. They offer injections, wound care, fracture care, and specialist referrals.

Your Irving Coppell Primary Care and Pediatrics provider tailors each treatment to your needs and follows up with you to ensure you’re healing or recovering effectively. They let you know if you need follow-up primary care, an evaluation by a specialist, or treatment at a hospital.
