What We Offer

Our Services

Pelham Internal Medicine offers comprehensive adult healthcare — from routine wellness visits to complex chronic disease management — all under one roof.

Primary Care

Comprehensive adult primary care including annual physicals, preventive screenings, and management of acute illnesses.

  • Annual wellness exams and physicals
  • Acute illness evaluation and treatment
  • Specialist referral coordination
  • Medication management and review
  • Health risk assessments

Our primary care services form the foundation of your long-term health. Dr. Patel provides thorough annual physicals, evaluates new and ongoing symptoms, manages acute illnesses, and coordinates referrals to specialists when needed. As your primary care physician, she builds a complete picture of your health over time — so nothing falls through the cracks.

Chronic Disease Management

Ongoing care and monitoring for conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, and thyroid disorders.

  • Diabetes management and A1C monitoring
  • Hypertension (high blood pressure) control
  • High cholesterol and lipid management
  • Thyroid disorder monitoring
  • COPD and asthma management

Living with a chronic condition requires consistent, attentive care. Dr. Patel partners with patients to manage conditions like Type 2 diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, hypothyroidism, COPD, and more. Through regular monitoring, medication adjustments, and lifestyle guidance, we help you stay in control of your health and reduce the risk of complications.

Preventive Health

Routine wellness exams, immunizations, and health screenings designed to keep you healthy and catch issues early.

  • Cancer screenings (colon, skin, cervical)
  • Cardiovascular risk assessment
  • Adult immunizations and flu shots
  • Bone density screening
  • Nutrition and lifestyle counseling

Prevention is the most powerful tool in medicine. Our preventive health services include age-appropriate cancer screenings, cardiovascular risk assessments, immunizations, and lifestyle counseling. We follow evidence-based guidelines to ensure you receive the right screenings at the right time — helping you stay ahead of potential health issues before they become serious.

Lab & Diagnostic Services

On-site lab work and coordination of diagnostic testing to support accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.

  • Routine blood work and metabolic panels
  • Urinalysis and cultures
  • Lipid panels and thyroid function tests
  • Coordination with imaging and specialty labs
  • EKG (electrocardiogram)

Accurate diagnosis starts with the right information. We offer on-site laboratory services for routine blood work, urinalysis, and other common tests. For more specialized diagnostics, we coordinate with trusted imaging centers and specialty labs to ensure timely results and seamless communication — so your care plan is always based on the most current data.

Medicare Wellness Visits

Annual wellness visits for Medicare patients, including personalized prevention plans and health risk assessments.

  • Annual Wellness Visit (AWV) for Medicare patients
  • Personalized prevention plan
  • Cognitive impairment screening
  • Depression and fall risk screening
  • Advance care planning discussion

Medicare Annual Wellness Visits are a valuable benefit that many patients underutilize. These visits are focused on prevention — not treatment of existing conditions. Dr. Patel will review your medical and family history, update your list of current providers and medications, assess your health risks, and create a personalized prevention plan to keep you as healthy as possible in the years ahead.
