Cold and flu symptoms can disrupt your daily life, cause discomfort, and spread to others if not managed properly. Our primary care providers are here to help you recover quickly and reduce the risk of complications, especially for vulnerable populations like young children, older adults, and those with chronic conditions.
We diagnose and treat symptoms such as fever, sore throat, nasal congestion, body aches, fatigue, and cough. Our clinic provides supportive treatments including antiviral medications when appropriate, flu testing, rest and hydration guidance, and symptom-specific therapies. Preventive measures like annual flu vaccines are also available. Whether it’s a mild seasonal cold or a more serious case of influenza, we ensure a fast, personalized, and effective care plan.
