Preventive Care
Regular visits help your physician review risk factors, age-appropriate screenings, immunizations, family history, and lifestyle habits before a small concern becomes harder to address.
Physician-Led Primary Care
Primary Care in Riverview and Tampa
Your health changes over time. Your doctor should know what changed with it. InCare provides physician-led primary care for preventive visits, everyday concerns, ongoing conditions, and the decisions that connect them.
A Long-Term Health Partner
A Primary Care Doctor Who Knows What Changed
Primary care works best when your physician knows more than the reason for today's appointment. Your medical history, medications, family history, sleep, stress, work, and health goals all influence the next decision. When those details stay with one team, each visit can build on the one before it.
At InCare, primary care is the foundation of your health plan. We help you stay current with preventive care, respond when something feels wrong, and follow changes over time. If a lab result, new medication, or specialist recommendation affects another part of your care, your primary care physician can help put it into context.
This ongoing relationship also gives you a familiar place to start when you are not sure what kind of care you need. Instead of repeating your story at disconnected clinics, you can contact a team that already understands the bigger picture.
Primary Care Services
Care for Today, Prevention for What Comes Next
Your visit is built around what you need now and what will help you stay healthier over time.
Sick Visits
For common illnesses, new symptoms, or minor injuries, we evaluate what is happening, explain the next steps, and arrange follow-up when your condition needs another look.
Chronic Condition Support
Ongoing care for conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and heart disease can include monitoring, medication review, lab work, and practical goals between visits.
Labs & Health Screenings
Your physician can order appropriate tests, review the results in the context of your history, and help you understand what needs attention now or monitoring later.
Medication Management
We review prescription medications, over-the-counter products, and supplements for effectiveness, side effects, interactions, adherence concerns, and changes in your health.
Referrals & Coordinated Care
When you need specialist care, imaging, or another service, your primary care physician can make an appropriate referral and help connect the recommendations to your overall plan.
Physical Exams
Physicals That Look Beyond a Single Number
A physical exam creates time to review how you are feeling, what has changed, and whether your preventive care is up to date. It may include a health-history review, vital signs, a physical evaluation, medication reconciliation, and discussion of recommended screenings or labs.
Annual Physical Exams
Your annual visit establishes a useful baseline and gives you space to discuss concerns that may not fit into a brief sick visit. Your physician can identify trends and recommend next steps based on your age, history, and current health.
Work Physicals
When an employer requires a physical, bring any forms or job-specific requirements with you. We complete the appropriate evaluation and documentation based on the information provided.

Review What Matters Now
Your physician performs an appropriate evaluation and discusses what deserves attention first. Some needs can be handled during the visit, while others may require testing or follow-up.
Leave With Clear Next Steps

Primary Care FAQs
Questions Patients Ask Before Their Visit
What can a primary care doctor help with?
A primary care doctor can help with preventive visits, physical exams, common illnesses, medication management, health screenings, lab work, referrals, and ongoing conditions such as high blood pressure or diabetes. Your physician also helps connect these pieces into one care plan.
How often should I see my primary care doctor?
The right schedule depends on your age, health history, medications, symptoms, and risk factors. Many patients benefit from a regular preventive visit, while people managing an ongoing condition may need follow-up more often. Your InCare physician will recommend a schedule for you.
Can I get a same-day primary care appointment?
Same-day appointments may be available for established and new patients. Availability changes by location and day, so call InCare at 813-553-3330 or use the online scheduling link to find the next appropriate visit.
Can my primary care doctor order labs or refer me to a specialist?
Yes. Your physician can order appropriate lab work, review the results with you, and coordinate referrals when specialist care is needed. The goal is to keep your primary care doctor informed so recommendations, medications, and follow-up remain connected.
What should I bring to my first primary care visit?
Bring a photo ID, insurance information if applicable, a current medication and supplement list, relevant medical history, and any records or recent test results you already have. Write down your main questions so your physician can address what matters most to you.
Does InCare offer virtual primary care visits?
InCare offers virtual visits when telehealth is appropriate for the concern and the patient. Some symptoms, tests, and physical exams require an in-person appointment. Call the office if you are unsure which visit type to choose.
