Dr. Patricia Landreth practices family medicine in Carlsbad, NM.

"If you want fast medicine, a quick in and out with some major pharmaceutical pushing, and never trying to go deeper to get to the underlying issue, or have time to listen to you, much less remember key details when you return, you might be content. After seeing she had just gotten her NP license in 2021 after years of being a nurse, her “methods” make more sense now. I have higher standards for my Dr, so I will not be going back to see this “doctor”. Some investment in a patient and their well-being are my minimum standards, and Patty does not meet that criteria.

What is Family Medicine?

Currently in medical care in the United States, there are four main primary care specialties: family medicine, internal medicine, pediatrics, and geriatrics. Internal medicine is primary care for adults, pediatrics is primary care for children and infants, and geriatrics is primary care for seniors. Family medicine, the broadest specialty, is primary care for all ages.

A family medicine physician is a medical 'home base' for patients. They treat all ages, all sexes, all organs, and all diseases. They can see every member of the family, from birth through old age. This allows family medicine doctors to develop long-term relationships with their patients and to understand how their patients' role in the family affects their health. They can provide check-ups, immunizations, screening services, gynecological exams and obstetric care, routine health care, and health counseling. When more specialized care is needed, a family medicine doctor can refer their patients to appropriate specialists. They can become educators and advocates for their patients in the sometimes overwhelming health care system.

As health care changes in this country, family medicine is a growing specialty for families and individuals who are seeking more personalized health care and a more personal relationship with their physician.
