Dr. Burichin
"Sharing your complete medication history with your physician is so important in establishing and maintaining your overall health. We will review with you any changes in your prescriptive and over-the counter medications during your appointment. I advise my patients to maintain a current list of all medications and herbal supplements they use along with the dose and frequency of each and bring this list with you for each appointment."
Dr. Reina
The Pap Smear
"The Papanicolau (Pap) test and the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) are fast and simple tests that can help detect cervical cancer. I recommend to my patients to start getting a pap smear, after 3 years of initiating sexual relations or at age 21, whichever comes first. This issue is very important to me, as my sister is alive today, thanks to the early detection of her cervical cancer during her routine yearly examination. I invite you to call today and make your appointment for your yearly exam."
