Annual wellness exams, chronic disease management, preventive screenings, and same-day sick visits — all via telehealth. Board-certified family medicine providers serving Maryland, Virginia, and Florida.
Primary care is the foundation of your health. Your primary care provider manages preventive care, coordinates specialist referrals, treats acute illnesses, and manages chronic conditions over time. Having a consistent primary care relationship means your provider knows your full health picture — not just today's problem.
Research published in the New England Journal of Medicine found that patients with a primary care relationship have 19% lower mortality than those without one. The American Academy of Family Physicians recommends annual wellness visits for all adults, and more frequent follow-ups for those managing chronic conditions.
At Icon Medicine, primary care is delivered via telehealth for patients in Maryland, Virginia, and Florida — and in-person at our Hyattsville, MD office for patients who prefer it. Same-day appointments are available daily.

Understanding your condition is the first step toward managing it. Click any condition below for detailed information on symptoms, how we treat it, and what to expect.
Hypertension is diagnosed when blood pressure consistently reads 130/80 mmHg or higher. It's often called the "silent killer" because most people have no symptoms until the pressure has been elevated for years. Left unmanaged, it causes heart attacks, strokes, kidney disease, and vision loss.
Emergency: If your blood pressure reads above 180/120, call 911 or go to the ER — this is a hypertensive emergency.
Type 2 diabetes is a chronic condition where your body doesn't use insulin effectively, causing blood sugar levels to stay too high. Pre-diabetes (HbA1c 5.7–6.4%) is an opportunity to reverse course. Diabetes is diagnosed at HbA1c ≥ 6.5% or fasting glucose ≥ 126 mg/dL.
The thyroid gland controls metabolism, energy, mood, and dozens of body functions. Hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) affects 1 in 8 women over a lifetime. Hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid) is less common but can cause serious heart rhythm issues if untreated.
Hyperthyroidism: referral to endocrinology for methimazole, radioactive iodine, or thyroidectomy evaluation.
High cholesterol has no symptoms — most people discover it on a routine blood test. Elevated LDL ("bad" cholesterol) contributes to plaque buildup in arteries, increasing heart attack and stroke risk. The American Heart Association recommends a fasting lipid panel every 4–6 years for adults with no risk factors, and more frequently with risk factors.
Your annual wellness exam is the most important appointment you can make. It's not just about feeling sick today — it's about catching problems before they start, staying current on screenings, and building a relationship with your provider who knows your full health picture year over year.
Whether you're establishing care for the first time or managing ongoing chronic conditions, here's what the primary care process looks like with us.
Your first visit is a complete health assessment. We review your full medical history, current medications, family history, and recent labs. We discuss your health goals, perform a telehealth physical examination, and identify gaps in preventive care. Maryland patients may also schedule an in-person physical at our Hyattsville office.
After your evaluation, we order a comprehensive lab panel tailored to your needs — CBC, CMP, lipid panel, HbA1c (if indicated), TSH, vitamin D, and any other clinically relevant tests. Lab orders are sent to Quest Diagnostics or LabCorp locations near you. Results are reviewed by your provider within 2–3 business days with a follow-up message explaining your findings.
Based on your evaluation and lab results, your provider builds a personalized care plan. This includes medication management (new prescriptions or adjustments to existing ones), lifestyle interventions (diet, exercise, sleep recommendations), specialist referrals when needed, and a clear schedule for follow-up visits.
Chronic conditions require ongoing monitoring. We schedule follow-ups based on your needs — every 3 months for actively managed conditions, 6 months for well-controlled conditions, and annually for healthy patients. Medication adjustments are made based on your response and lab values. You can also message your provider between visits.
We proactively track age-appropriate screenings — colonoscopy (starting at 45), mammograms for women 40+, PSA screening for men 50+, bone density scans, and cardiovascular risk assessments. We also keep your vaccines up to date and review your lifestyle risk factors annually to prevent disease before it starts.
Plan for 45–60 minutes. Your provider will review your complete medical history, current medications, and health goals. Be ready to share past diagnoses, surgeries, and family medical history. After the visit, lab orders are sent within 24 hours and prescriptions to your pharmacy by end of day.
All lab orders go to Quest Diagnostics or LabCorp locations near you. Most routine labs are covered by insurance (CBC, CMP, lipids, A1C, TSH). Results are reviewed by your provider, and you'll receive a message with your results and explanation within 2–3 business days. Critical values are addressed same day.
Telehealth visits are available for patients in Maryland, Virginia, and Florida. In-person visits at our Hyattsville, MD office are available for Maryland patients. In-person is recommended for physical examinations, certain procedures (ear lavage, wound care), and when physical assessment is clinically necessary.
We built Icon Medicine for patients who are tired of rushed 10-minute appointments, months-long waits, and providers who don't know their name.
Our providers are board-certified in family medicine with advanced training in chronic disease management. You'll see the same provider every visit — continuity is built in.
No 6-week wait to see your doctor. Most patients are seen the same day or next day. Acute issues like infections or medication concerns are addressed promptly.
Mental health, physical health, and lifestyle factors are considered together. We don't treat numbers on a lab report — we treat people. Referrals to our mental health and weight management services are seamless.
We accept most major insurance plans including BCBS, Aetna, UnitedHealth, Cigna, Medicare, and Medicaid MCOs. Our staff handles prior authorizations so you don't have to.
Establish care directly — no referral from another provider required. New patients are welcomed with same-week new patient appointments. Specialist referrals are coordinated by us when needed.
Complete your care from anywhere in MD, VA, or FL via telehealth. Maryland patients can also visit us in person at our Hyattsville office — 7411 Riggs Rd, Suite 300B.

Real experiences from Icon Medicine primary care patients.
I've been managing my blood pressure and diabetes for years but could never get timely follow-ups with my old doctor. With Icon Medicine, I have a same-week appointment whenever my numbers aren't right. My A1C has gone from 8.2 down to 6.9 in eight months.

For the first time, I feel like my doctor actually knows me. They remember my history, ask how my kids are doing, and respond to my messages within hours. I've finally established real primary care after five years of going to urgent care for everything.
