It’s a Lovely day at DMA 💕

From festive outfits to sweet treats, our team is celebrating Valentine’s Day the best way we know how — together, with lots of smiles (and maybe a little chocolate 🍫).

Speaking of hearts… today is a great reminder to show your real heart some love too! A few simple ways to keep it healthy:
❤️ Take a brisk walk — even 20 minutes helps
🥗 Choose more whole foods like fruits, veggies, and lean proteins
💧 Stay hydrated and limit sugary drinks
😴 Prioritize good sleep — your heart needs rest too
🩺 Keep up with your checkups and blood pressure screenings

According to the American Heart Association, small daily habits can make a big difference in long-term heart health.

We hope your Valentine’s Day is filled with kindness, laughter, and maybe a treat or two. From all of us at the office — take care of your heart today and every day! 💗!!!

Alright, cue the confetti 🎉📣

🌟 EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH: STEPHANIE!🌟

Let’s hear it for Stephanie, our absolutely unstoppable call center rockstar at the medical practice! 🏆📞

Her nominators put it best (and honestly, we couldn’t say it better):

I cannot say how much she deserves this. Only two of us were holding down the call center for first lunch, and she did it alone while I was on the phone. When I came back, I had to rewrite everything so it could be understood… and there was only ONE call waiting. She is a champ and I appreciate her. Please appreciate her too.

THAT. PART. 👏

Stephanie stepped up, held it down solo, kept the call center running smoothly, and did it all with grace, skill, and zero complaints. That’s not just impressive—that’s next-level team player energy. 💪✨

So join us in celebrating Stephanie for her dedication, teamwork, and superhero-level phone skills. Please appreciate her (a lot), because she more than earned this honor! 🎉🙌

👏👏👏 Congrats, Stephanie! 👏👏👏

🌟 Attention Patients of Downriver Medical Associates!🌟

It’s that time of year again! We want to remind you about your Annual Wellness Exam, and here’s why it’s crucial for your health:

Importance of Your Annual Wellness Exam:

- Early Detection: Regular exams can help identify health issues before they become serious, allowing for early intervention.
- Preventive Care: These visits focus on preventive measures, such as vaccinations and screenings, tailored to your age and risk factors.
- Health Monitoring: Your provider can track your health metrics over time, helping you manage chronic conditions effectively.
- Personalized Health Advice: Discuss your lifestyle, nutrition, and exercise habits with your provider to receive tailored advice for improving your overall health.

Key Facts to Remember:

- Timing: You’re typically eligible for your wellness exam 1 year and 1 day after your last visit.
- Coverage: This visit is usually covered 100% by your insurance!

To check when your exam is due, you can call your insurance provider. If you had your last exam with us, feel free to call our office, and we can help you get scheduled. Just let our receptionist know you’re calling to find out when your annual wellness exam is due and to set up an appointment.

🔔 Important Reminder: If during your visit you discuss any issues outside of what insurance mandates for the annual wellness exam, please note that you will be billed for those services and charged your typical copay, as required by insurers.

Your health is our priority—don’t wait to take care of yourself! 📞 Call us today to get your appointment scheduled!

Thank you for choosing Downriver Medical Associates!
