Well today marks nine whole years since we opened our adult practice in St Martinville!!! It was scary starting new but it has been such a privilege and a blessing serving this community these past nine years. I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else! Thank you God for my patients and my busy practice 🙌🏻

Happy birthday to us and here’s to many more years doing what we love!!

Sometimes it is hard to tell if the trees are attacking you or if you actually caught a spring bug.

Here is a quick guide to tell the difference:

Itchy eyes and throat: Usually allergies.

Fever, chills, or body aches: Definitely a virus.

Severe facial pressure for over a week: Might be turning into a sinus infection.

If your over-the-counter allergy meds aren't touching your symptoms, or you start running a fever, come see us. Let's figure out what is actually going on so you can feel better.

You don't just need sunscreen for the beach. You need it for driving to work, walking the dog, and sitting on the patio.

Incidental sun exposure—the UV rays you get just going about your normal day—adds up over the years and is a leading cause of skin damage.

Make SPF 30 the last step of your morning routine every single day. Not just when it's sunny.

Disappointed….Trying to schedule a primary care visit for my mother in law because my husband will be in Alabama for a short time to take her. She’s very sick and I was shut down. Nothing available until June. I know better. And I am better. I know how schedules work and I know you can fit people in when needed. If you need to be seen I will see you. If you have any trouble getting in let the staff know and they will come talk to me. I’ve always said not everything is black and white and sometimes we need to work people in. I’m here to help.

PS- i can’t change the schedule for just convenience but if it’s emergent or if you’re sick we surely will! This is what I’m talking about.

If you hit a wall at 2 PM with a dull headache and brain fog, you might not need more coffee. You probably just need water.

Mild dehydration is the number one cause of that afternoon slump. Before you grab another caffeinated drink or a sugary snack, try this: drink a full glass of water and wait 20 minutes.

Due to the city wide water outage tomorrow April 10th we are not allowed to see patients in person during the outage scheduled from 8:00am-12:00pm. If you have an appointment scheduled between those hours we will be reaching out to either reschedule you or convert you to a virtual visit. Thank you for your understanding.

Pardon our progress lately! We are temporarily short staffed but are trying to make the best of it! It’s tough being a small business in a world where hospital-owned clinics have unlimited resources and staff. It’s just us trying to help the community of St Martinville that we love be healthier and live better, longer lives. If there is something we can be doing better please let us know and we’ll fix it! Alison and her staff want nothing more than to keep you and your family happy and healthy! We will weather this temporary storm together and come out stronger and better than ever!

Happy World Health Day.

If you feel completely off track with your health right now, do not panic. You do not have to overhaul your entire life by tomorrow. Just pick one thing today.

Drink one extra glass of water. Go for a 10-minute walk outside. Go to bed 30 minutes earlier.

Good health isn't about being perfect. It is just a series of small, consistent choices. Start where you are.

Stress isn't just in your head. It is highly physical.

If you are dealing with constant headaches, random stomach issues, or a jaw that always aches, your body is trying to tell you something. Living with high cortisol levels actually takes a toll on your immune system and your gut.

This month is Stress Awareness Month. If you feel like your body is constantly breaking down, let's talk about it. Sometimes the best prescription is setting a boundary.

Wishing everyone a happy Easter and hoping you all have some quality time planned with friends and family this weekend! Please note our office will be closed this Friday, April 3rd in observance of Good Friday. We will be back to normal business hours on Tuesday April 7th!
