THE ERICKSON TRIBUNE
At the Monarch Landing Medical Center, all health professional—doctors, nurses, specialists—are experts in geriatric care. That means they’re especially skilled at diagnosing and treating health concerns facing older adults like diabetes, hypertension, and arthritis.
The Medical Center’s, primary care physician is proactive, working to prevent problems and diagnoses others before they become more serious.
Your Doctor Knows You
Erickson HealthSM doctors only schedule two appointments an hour. That’s a big difference for most Americans who are used to having on average seven minutes to talk with their physician. Each Erickson HealthSM physician has a practice of only 400 patients, instead of the 2,000 average primary care doctor has. As you can imagine, that means the doctor at Monarch Landing gets to truly know you and your health needs.
And since the doctor is conveniently located on campus, you’ll find appointments easier to schedule, your doctor easier to reach, and an overall better responsiveness to your medical needs.
