What to Expect From Your Visits
At NOLA Care, chronic care is more than prescriptions — it’s about partnership. Each 30–60 minute visit includes time to discuss your symptoms, goals, and challenges. Together, we’ll build a care plan that blends western and holistic medicine, helps manage side effects, and supports your overall well-being. If specialty care is needed, we coordinate referrals so you always have a trusted hub for your health.

- Medication management and refills; side-effect review and dose adjustments.
- Labs & imaging coordination with fast results and next-step guidance.
- Wellness and lifestyle coaching for nutrition, movement, sleep, and stress management aligned with your condition.
- Care coordination if you need referrals to cardiology, pulmonology, endocrinology, etc.

And for those who are already diagnosed, think of us as your in-between care. Whereas specialists see you only once every 6-12 months, we help you in manage daily life in between.

We can help you manage ongoing conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, thyroid disorders, asthma, and more.
The reason why so many people choose to have a specialist and a chronic disease management primary care practice is because most specialists only see you every 3, 6, or 12 months but you are left with dealing with the effects of a chornic disease 365 days a year. Having a supportive medical partner in your corner to manage the disease during the in-between can make a world of difference.

That may mean managing your symptoms, adjusting your medications, guiding your through lifestyle changes, and more. The goal is to help improve your quality of life.
