Establishing an ongoing relationship with a primary care doctor is important to help you stay healthy throughout your life. A primary care doctor can also help you and your family members manage chronic illnesses such as asthma, diabetes, high-blood pressure and obesity before they become life threatening. Also, by having a regular doctor, all of your medical records are in one place, making it easier for you to receive the care you need.For a consumer-friendly video about the benefits of having a primary care doctor visit this website: http://pcpcc.net/content/emmi-video
