What Are Chronic Diseases?

Chronic diseases are long-term health conditions that persist for months or years and often require ongoing medical management. Unlike acute illnesses that resolve quickly, chronic conditions are typically not curable but can be effectively managed with proper treatment, lifestyle modifications, and regular monitoring. These conditions can affect multiple aspects of your daily life, but with the right care plan, most people with chronic diseases live full, active lives.

Our Approach to Chronic Disease Management

Comprehensive Initial Assessment

Your first visit includes a thorough review of your medical history, current symptoms, medications, and lifestyle factors. We perform a complete physical examination and order necessary diagnostic tests through our in-house laboratory and imaging services.

Personalized Treatment Plans

No two patients are alike, and neither are their treatment plans. Dr. Siddiqui and Dr. Muzaffar consider your specific condition, overall health, other medical issues, lifestyle, preferences, and goals when developing your care strategy.

Medication Management

For many chronic conditions, medication plays a crucial role in controlling symptoms and preventing complications. We carefully prescribe medications, monitor their effectiveness, adjust dosages as needed, and watch for potential side effects or drug interactions.

Lifestyle Modification Counseling

Diet, exercise, stress management, sleep quality, and other lifestyle factors significantly impact chronic disease outcomes. We provide practical, achievable recommendations tailored to your life circumstances.

Regular Monitoring and Follow-Up

Chronic conditions require ongoing attention. We schedule regular appointments to track your progress, review lab results, adjust treatments, and address new concerns before they become serious problems.

Preventive Care

Managing existing conditions while preventing new ones is essential. We ensure you receive age-appropriate screenings, vaccinations, and preventive services during your visits for chronic disease.

Care Coordination

When your condition requires specialized care, we coordinate with specialists, hospitals, and other healthcare providers to ensure seamless communication and comprehensive treatment.

Patient Education

Understanding your condition empowers you to take an active role in your care. We explain your diagnosis, treatment options, and what you can do to improve your health in terms that make sense.

Whether you've been recently diagnosed, need better management of an existing condition, or are looking for a new primary care physician who truly cares, Broadway Family Clinic is here to help.

  • Acute diseases are short-term conditions that come on suddenly and typically resolve within days or weeks, such as the flu or a urinary tract infection. Chronic diseases are long-term conditions that persist for months or years and usually require ongoing management rather than a cure, such as diabetes, heart disease, or arthritis.

  • The frequency of visits depends on your specific condition, how well it's controlled, and your overall health. Some patients need monthly visits, while others with well-controlled conditions may only need quarterly or semi-annual checkups. Your physician will recommend the appropriate schedule for your situation.

  • Most chronic diseases cannot be cured, but they can be effectively managed. With proper treatment, lifestyle modifications, and regular monitoring, many people with chronic conditions live long, healthy, active lives with minimal symptoms and few complications.

  • Not necessarily. Some patients can manage certain chronic conditions through lifestyle changes alone. However, many chronic diseases do require long-term medication to control symptoms and prevent complications. Your treatment plan will be individualized based on your specific condition and response to treatment.

  • Contact our office immediately if you experience worsening symptoms or new concerning signs. We offer same-day appointments and accept walk-ins for urgent issues. For emergencies, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.

  • Very important. For many chronic conditions, lifestyle factors like diet, exercise, stress management, sleep, and avoiding tobacco have a significant impact on disease progression and quality of life. We provide practical guidance to help you make sustainable lifestyle changes that improve your health outcomes.
