June is Men’s Health Month. Studies continue to show that men are statistically less likely to schedule routine doctor visits or seek preventive care, often waiting until symptoms become more serious before taking action.

Preventive care is not just about annual checkups. It can include: Blood pressure and cholesterol screenings • Diabetes screenings • Skin checks • Mental health support • Preventive lab work and wellness visits.

Taking care of your health now can help support long-term wellness later. This month, North Coast Family Medical Group is encouraging men to prioritize their health and stay proactive about preventive care.

Living in Southern California means more sunshine, but it also means stronger UV exposure, especially as we head into summer.

Small daily habits can make a big difference when it comes to protecting your skin: ☀️ Wear SPF every day ☀️ Reapply every two hours when outdoors ☀️ Protect your lips with SPF lip balm ☀️ Wear a hat and seek shade when possible.

Even on cooler or cloudy San Diego days, UV rays can still impact your skin. Consistent protection is one of the best ways to support long-term skin health.

If you have questions about skin health or would like to schedule an appointment, call North Coast Family Medical Group at (760) 942-0118 or click the link below to learn more.

It is National Sunscreen Day! ☀️

Sunscreen is one of the simplest ways you can protect your skin every day, not just at the beach. Here are three things to remember:

🧴 Use SPF 30 or higher 🔄 Reapply every two hours, especially after swimming or sweating 👂 Do not forget the easy-to-miss spots like your ears, neck, and hands

Your skin will thank you now and for years to come. If you ever notice any changes in your skin, do not wait. Schedule a skin check with our team.

Today, we pause to honor Memorial Day, a day set aside to remember and pay tribute to the men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. Their sacrifice is the reason we are able to gather with family, enjoy our community, and live the lives we do.

Our office is closed today in observance of the holiday. We will be back in the office on Tuesday, May 26.
