Good afternoon, doctor. I’d like an appointment for my dad in La Cruz. He has diabetes and high blood pressure.
Of course. I’ll see him Monday at CEM. Ask him to bring his lab results and his medication boxes.
I don’t live there. Can you tell me how it went?
Yes. With your dad’s permission, I’ll send you the written plan afterwards.

What still gets prescribed

Have you been told this?

Tap each card.

Have you heard…? 01
“Take an omeprazole to protect your stomach.”
Tap to see
But careful:
If you don’t need it, it protects you from nothing. Taken for years, it has been linked to low vitamin B12, weaker bones and even cancer.
We check whether you really need it.
Have you heard…? 02
“A daily aspirin, to prevent a heart attack.”
Tap to see
But careful:
If you have never had a heart attack, in many older people the bleeding risk outweighs the protection it gives.
We decide based on your risk.
Have you heard…? 03
“It’s just your age.”
Tap to see
But careful:
Falling, forgetting or losing strength is not normal just because you are "getting older". Often it is frailty, and frailty can be detected, prevented and treated.
We check it in time.
Have you heard…? 04
“Keep taking everything you were prescribed.”
Tap to see
But careful:
Over the years, pills pile up that you no longer need, that duplicate each other or that cause side effects.
We review each one: which stays, which gets adjusted and which goes.

You know the saying…

Cheap ends up costly.

In health, too. Skipping the specialist can end in the ER.
