        As your primary healthcare provider, Dr. Klawitter offers expert diagnosis and management for a wide range of common health conditions. Common areas of focus include:

        • Kidney Infection: Kidney infections are serious, but your family doctor can help manage them through testing, treatment with antibiotics, and follow-up care to prevent recurrence.
        • Hair Loss: Don't worry about hair loss alone – your primary care physician can evaluate your symptoms, identify potential causes, and provide guidance or referrals for specialized care.
        • COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease): COPD is a progressive lung disease that makes breathing difficult. Your family doctor can help diagnose COPD, provide treatment, and work with you to improve your lung health.
        • Excessive Sweating: Your family physician is a great resource for understanding why you're sweating excessively and finding solutions to manage this symptom.
        • Eczema and Contact Dermatitis: Family doctors can help manage eczema and contact dermatitis, common skin irritations, by identifying triggers and prescribing appropriate medications.
        • Conduct Disorder: Conduct disorder involves a pattern of violating rules and the rights of others, and your family physician can help evaluate and manage your child's behavior, referring to other professionals if needed.
        • Contact Dermatitis: An itchy, red rash that appears after touching a particular substance could be contact dermatitis. Your family doctor can diagnose this and recommend appropriate treatments, such as avoiding the trigger and using specific creams.
        • Hypothyroidism: Experiencing fatigue, weight gain, or cold sensitivity? These could be signs of hypothyroidism, which your family doctor can diagnose and help you manage through medication and lifestyle advice.
        • Food Poisoning: Don't suffer needlessly from food poisoning! Your family doctor can diagnose the cause, treat your symptoms, and advise on how to avoid it in the future.
        • Cellulitis: Cellulitis is a bacterial skin infection that causes redness, swelling, and pain, and your family doctor can diagnose it and prescribe antibiotics to clear the infection.
        • Back Pain: Back pain is discomfort or aching in your back, and a family doctor can help diagnose the cause and recommend treatment options like exercise, medication, or physical therapy.
        • Loss of Voice or Hoarse Voice: If you've lost your voice or it's become hoarse, your family physician can diagnose the problem, whether it's a simple cold or a more complex issue.

        This list represents some of the common conditions treated. An accurate diagnosis and a personalized care plan can only be developed through a direct consultation with a qualified medical professional.

        • Health Screening: Regular health screenings help your doctor monitor your overall health and identify any risks.
        • Sexually Transmitted Infections Screening: STI screenings are quick tests that can detect infections and help prevent serious health complications that can result from untreated STIs.

        • STD Screening: Regular STD screenings are important for preventing the spread of sexually transmitted infections and ensuring early diagnosis and treatment if an infection is present.
        • Patch Testing: Patch testing helps diagnose allergic contact dermatitis, a common skin reaction to things like metals, cosmetics, or plants.

        • Pre-Operative Evaluation: Your doctor will perform a pre-operative evaluation to minimize risks and optimize your health before a surgical procedure.
        • Prostate Cancer Screening: Prostate cancer screening involves tests to detect prostate cancer early, often through a blood test (PSA) and/or a digital rectal exam, potentially saving lives through early treatment.
        • Alcohol Misuse Screening and Counseling: If you're concerned about your drinking, your family doctor can screen for alcohol misuse and offer counseling to help you.

        What kind of routine health screenings do you perform in the office?
        Dr. Klawitter uses routine screenings like blood pressure checks, cholesterol and blood sugar tests, and cancer screenings (like Pap smears, mammogram referrals, and colonoscopy referrals) as essential tools to catch health problems early.
        Do you provide care for children and teenagers as well?
        Yes, Dr. Klawitter's practice provides care for children and teenagers. Family medicine covers all stages of life, from well-child visits to managing adolescent health needs. This is a convenient option for entire families to receive care at one practice.
