Medication or Prevention - The Choice That Could Change Your Health and Your Life

If you want to avoid spending money on costly surgeries, procedures, medications, and illnesses, choose a doctor to partner with to better your health. Be sure to pick a physician who will work with you towards your wellness goals. While it will cost money to do this, you can consider it an investment in your health. The tests and labs your insurance usually covers are not always enough to tell your provider if there is a serious medical problem. You can have normal panels in your annual exam and still have underlying health issues. Getting a checkup 1-3 times a year is more important than anything else you could do. You take care of your house and ensure it doesn't get damaged. You look after your car and get it the maintenance it needs. You have home insurance, and you have car insurance—and you hope you never need it. So why wouldn't you take these same principles and apply it to your health? It can be frustrating to work in a system that operates slowly, and perhaps you don't get as much time with your doctor as you'd hoped. Many doctors decide to go into private practice so that they can avoid working with insurance companies and operate with a different business model. Medications are not magic pills designed to help you—-there is usually a price to pay in the form of serious or mild side effects. Don't wait for disease to see a doctor. Choose a doctor who will talk to you about preventing illness, even if it means disrupting your status quo.   Connect with Dr. Cernaianu https://www.herabeautyandwellness.com/  https://www.instagram.com/herabeautyandwellness/  https://www.facebook.com/people/Hera-Healthcare-Mirela-Cernaianu-MD/100063462643162/
