Adult Primary Care in Dallas, TX
A steady medical home for every stage of adulthood — from routine checkups and screenings to managing the conditions that need consistent attention. One physician who knows your history and follows it forward.
Our Approach to Adult Primary Care
Good primary care is less about any single appointment and more about what carries forward between them. Here's how that works in practice.
Establishing Care as a New Patient
Your first visit is longer than a typical appointment because it has to be. We review your full medical history, past surgeries, family history, current medications, and any records from previous physicians.
From there, Dr. Race builds a baseline — labs, vitals, and a screening schedule matched to your age and risk factors. That baseline is what every future visit gets measured against.
- Complete history and records review
- Baseline bloodwork and vitals
- Personalized screening timeline

Care That Continues Between Visits
Health doesn't pause between appointments. When a medication needs adjusting, a lab result raises a question, or a new symptom appears, you're contacting a physician who already knows the context.
For patients managing ongoing conditions, that continuity extends into structured chronic care management — regular check-ins, medication reconciliation, and coordination with any specialists involved.
- Direct communication with your physician
- Lab results reviewed and explained
- Specialist findings folded back into your chart
Prevention as the Default
The most valuable work in primary care is often the least dramatic. Catching a rising A1C before it becomes diabetes, or flagging blood pressure that's crept up quietly over three years, changes outcomes far more than treating the same conditions later.
That's why the annual wellness exam stays central to how we practice — a scheduled, comprehensive look at where things stand while there's still room to adjust course.
- Age-appropriate cancer screenings
- Cardiovascular and metabolic risk tracking
- Immunizations kept current

What should I bring to my first appointment?
Bring a photo ID, your insurance card, and a complete list of medications and supplements you currently take — including dosages. If you have records from a previous physician, recent lab work, or imaging reports, those help us build an accurate baseline from day one.
How often should I see a primary care physician?
Most healthy adults should schedule an annual wellness exam. If you're managing a chronic condition such as diabetes or hypertension, visits every three to six months are typical so medications and lab values can be adjusted as needed.
Do you accept my insurance?
We accept most major insurance plans, including Medicare. Because coverage networks change, we recommend calling the office before your first visit so we can verify your specific plan and explain any expected out-of-pocket costs upfront.
Can I be seen for a sudden illness or injury?
Yes. Established patients can typically be seen the same week for infections, respiratory illness, minor injuries, and new symptoms. For anything life-threatening — chest pain, difficulty breathing, signs of stroke — call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room immediately.
Will Dr. Race coordinate with my specialists?
That's a core part of the role. When a referral is needed, we send your relevant records ahead, then follow up so the specialist's findings and any medication changes are entered into your primary chart rather than living in a separate system.
How do I get prescription refills?
Request refills through the patient portal or by calling the office. Most routine refills are processed within one to two business days. Certain medications require a recent visit or current lab work before we can renew them — we'll let you know if that applies.
