Care that honors a lifetime
Specialized senior medicine that addresses age-related health, simplifies complex medications, and protects independence and quality of life.
Caring for older adults takes a different kind of attention — to the interplay of multiple conditions, to medications that can work against each other, and to the goals that matter most in the later years. Dr. Pattem's background in geriatric care means seniors get a physician who understands all of it.
Whole-person care for our older patients
Seniors often juggle several chronic conditions and a long medication list. We take the time to see the full picture — reviewing medications for interactions and unnecessary duplication, managing chronic disease carefully, and focusing on what preserves independence and quality of life.
Many of our patients have been with this practice for decades, first with Dr. Nuchovich and now with Dr. Pattem. That continuity is a real part of good geriatric care.
