✝️ Today marks Ash Wednesday, the beginning of the Lenten season for many of our patients, families, and community members.

Ash Wednesday is a time of reflection, prayer, and renewal. It serves as a reminder to slow down, focus on what truly matters, and care for not only our physical health, but our spiritual and emotional well-being too. Many people observe this day through fasting, prayer, or receiving ashes as a symbol of humility and new beginnings.

At Brooks Family Medical, we honor and respect the traditions and beliefs of every individual we serve. We understand that faith, reflection, and personal wellness often go hand-in-hand with overall health.

As this season begins, we encourage everyone to take a moment for self-care — mind, body, and spirit. Whether that means practicing gratitude, checking in on your health, or simply showing kindness to someone today, it all matters.

Wishing peace, comfort, and good health to all who observe. 🤍

✨ PROVIDER SPOTLIGHT ✨

Meet Christina Pellman, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC — our amazing Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner here at Brooks Family Medical 💙

Christina chose psychiatric care because of a deeply personal experience. Watching her papaw live with Alzheimer’s showed her that patients deserve to be seen as people, not just diagnoses. That passion drives her to provide compassionate, whole-person care every single day.

She loves home-based care because it allows her to meet patients where they’re most comfortable and reach those who might otherwise go without the support they need. Her goal? To work closely with families and provide the best possible care for their loved ones.

Her approach to care:
A holistic, whole-person focus — looking beyond symptoms to understand the “why” behind behaviors and feelings so patients can truly improve.

Favorites & Fun Facts:
☕ Go-to drink: Just water (hydration queen 👑)
🥣 Favorite comfort food: Her grandma’s vegetable soup
📺 Current favorite show: Golden Girls
🏀 Fun fact: She’s a HUGE Duke basketball fan!

When she’s not caring for patients, you’ll find her spending time with her family, usually cheering on her kids at their extracurricular activities.

We’re so lucky to have Christina on our team and even luckier for the patients and families she serves every day. 💙

Drop some love for Christina in the comments! 👇

✨ PROVIDER SPOTLIGHT FRIDAY ✨

Meet the heart behind the mission.

Joseph Brooks, APRN, FNP isn’t just our CEO, he’s the kind of provider who believes healthcare should actually feel like care. His passion? Treating the whole person, not just the diagnosis. From building real relationships with patients to delivering personalized care right in the comfort of home, he’s redefining what primary care should look like.

💙 Why primary care?
Because every patient deserves someone who connects the dots, listens to their story, and walks beside them through their health journey.

🏡 Why home-based care?
Healthcare is better when it meets you where you are, literally. Being in a patient’s home allows for deeper understanding, stronger trust, and more meaningful care.

🩺 One thing I wish patients knew: I wish our patients knew how much we truly care, not just about their diagnosis, but about them as people. Your goals, your worries, your daily life matters to us, & we are here to walk alongside you, not just treat you!

☕ Go-to fuel: Coffee. Black. (No fluff, just results.)
🍗 Favorite comfort food: Fried chicken
📺 Current binge: The Office
🎤 Fun fact: He was in a screamo band as a teenager
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Off the clock: Spending time with his wife and four kids

His approach in one sentence?
LOVE EVERYONE. EVERYWHERE. ALL THE TIME.

This is the leadership and compassion driving our care forward every single day & we’re proud to have him & it, at the center of everything we do.

February is Black History Month, a time to honor the achievements, resilience, and contributions of Black Americans who have shaped medicine, science, culture, and civil rights.

Black History Month began in 1926 as Negro History Week and became a national observance in 1976. It exists because Black history was not being taught, despite Black Americans making groundbreaking contributions, often while facing discrimination, limited access to care, and health inequities that still impact communities today.

At Brooks Family Medical, we believe healthcare should be inclusive, equitable, and compassionate. We proudly stand as supporters of Black history, Black voices, and Black lives—not just this month, but always. Our commitment is to provide respectful, patient-centered care for everyone, meeting people where they are and honoring their lived experiences.

We celebrate the past, acknowledge the work still to be done, and remain dedicated to caring for our community with dignity and respect.

🖤✊🏾 Because history matters. Representation matters. And so does how we care for one another.
