Brandy Lasley, APRN:
At Baptist Health Medical Group here in Williamsburg, we offer treatment for both chronic and acute illnesses. We treat patients ranging from 3 years old to 100 years old. Our services include managing conditions like obesity, hypertension, and diabetes. We also provide preventive care, including physicals for work or school, well-child visits, and general wellness exams. In addition, we help ensure you receive all necessary screenings and similar services.
There’s a saying, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” By coming to see us regularly, we can focus on preventive medicine. Our goal is to prevent future health problems. For example, we aim to prevent diabetes, hypertension, heart attacks, strokes, and other conditions. Regular visits allow us to monitor your cholesterol, check your blood pressure, and manage those factors, which can help prevent many health issues down the road.
Being part of Baptist Health in this small community also connects us to a larger network of providers, extending from Williamsburg to Lexington and Corbin. We have access to specialists and can quickly reach out for assistance. Whether we have a question about a patient's care or need further insights, help is just a message away.
I truly enjoy treating patients of all ages, and I appreciate getting to know entire families. It helps me to better understand the patients, their needs, and what to expect in the future.
