Primary
Care
For many people,
their primary care physician is their most important health care
resource. And Mercy's medical staff offers many primary care physicians
for different needs and preferences:
- Family practice
doctors care for individuals of all ages and often care for several
members of the same family.
- Pediatricians
specialize in the care of children under the age of 18.
- Internal
medicine doctors, or internists, specialize in the care of adults,
age 18 and over.
- Obstetricians/gynecologists
specialize in health care for women, particularly in reproductive
health and pregnancy.
Mercy physicians
are located in many communities of southeast Iowa. Click
