There are countless reasons why it is important to find the right primary care physician. It is comfortable to see the same doctor that your father went to. However, in the last several decades, research has progressed the medical field quite a bit, and you want to make sure your primary care physician maintains accreditation at peak levels and stays abreast of the latest findings in the field of medicine by pursuing ongoing education. Dr. Shiva Mohtashami is a primary care physician whose focus is on preventative medicine and women’s health.
Preventative healthcare or preventative medicine consists of medical services provided with the goal of ensuring that patients remain free of both mental and physical disorders that can find their roots in patients’ genetics, environments, or even their lifestyles. A large part of any primary care physician’s focus should be on preventative medicine, because it not only saves insurance companies money, it also saves people money, and it also saves people from dying needless deaths.
With a little knowledge and quality medical care, Dr. Mohtashami hopes to help prevent many of these deaths in her patients. The best way to do this is with wellness visits. During these visits, you will be screened for potential problems like:
Diabetes was the seventh leading cause of death in the U.S. in 2017. Diabetes does damage to both small and large blood vessels, which can cause a stroke or heart attack. The kidneys, feet, eyes, and nerves are also commonly damaged.
In 2018, nearly half a million deaths in the U.S. included hypertension as a primary or contributing cause. Hypertension damages arteries that often become blocked hindering blood flow to the heart muscle or to the brain.
Having high blood cholesterol raises the risk for heart disease and stroke. This includes peripheral vascular disease, and high cholesterol is also connected to diabetes and hypertension.
One person dies every 36 seconds in the U.S. from cardiovascular disease. Heart disease is the leading cause of death in America.

Women should take care of themselves and schedule well women’s check-ups with their primary-care doctor to stay healthy. These visits allow a woman to discuss any concerns about her reproductive system or sexual health. During her visit, she can discuss any other ailments she might feel are bothering her. Dr. Shiva Mohtashami in Morgan Hill, CA, is a specialist when it comes to performing annual well women’s check-ups.
These visits usually include a pelvic exam and pap test, sometimes blood work, and other tests. The doctor can also give advice about sexual health, childbirth preparation, and breast self-exams. Women aged 21 to 65 should schedule a well women’s check-up every year. If a woman becomes sexually active before the age of 21, she should begin these yearly exams the year she becomes sexually active.
These visits provide the ability to do regular screenings for various diseases such as cervical cancer or STDs (sexually transmitted diseases). Women who have abnormal results during their annual well women’s check-up should consider further testing at a gynecologist as recommended by her primary care physician. Since this visit is a comprehensive look at your overall health, in addition to your reproductive system and sexual health, it’s essential to bring up any other concerns you might have.
When the exam is finished, your doctor will follow up with you on the results found. You’ll learn the results of your STD screenings and hear about any additional treatments your doctor may recommend based on the results of your bloodwork and other tests. Your doctor might recommend increasing specific vitamins, switching to a different type of diet to remain healthy, or providing you with a referral to a reproductive health specialist if they feel you might need a second opinion. These results and findings are logged in your medical records so your doctor can see the difference in improvement from the last time they performed these tests.
