Pilots, here's a frustrating one: you show up to your FAA medical feeling great, and your certificate still gets delayed because of one missing piece of paper.

Most of the time, that's preventable. Here's my quick pre-exam checklist:

✈️ Before your appointment
• Complete your application in MedXPress and bring the confirmation number. Your AME can't pull up your application without it.
• MedXPress applications stay active for 60 days, so book your exam soon after you submit.
• Have a current or past medical condition, or take any medications? Gather records ahead of time. For some conditions, the FAA wants a detailed clinical progress note from your treating doctor, from a visit within the last 90 days. A patient-portal "after visit summary" usually isn't enough.

✈️ Exam day
• Bring a government-issued photo ID.
• Wear or bring your glasses or contacts. Your vision will be tested.
• Expect vitals, vision and hearing checks, a urine sample, and an EKG if one is required for you.

According to the FAA, for some conditions an AME may be able to issue your certificate right at the exam if the correct documentation is there. Without it, things can get delayed.

At Milepost Medical, we offer Class 1, 2, and 3 FAA medical exams.

Halloween is Saturday, which means costumes, candy, and a lot of Houston kids (and grown-ups) out on the sidewalks right around sunset. Here's my quick Halloween-week health check-in.

What changed this week (Texas DSHS report for Oct 11–17):
• Flu is still creeping up. About 9.4% of flu tests at Texas hospital labs came back positive, up from 8.8% the week before. Overall flu-like illness is still low, so there's still time to get ahead of it.
• Common cold viruses (rhinovirus/enterovirus) are still the most common bug going around. They came back positive on about 39% of tests, far more than any other virus tracked.
• COVID test positivity dipped to about 3% (from about 4.3%), and RSV is still low.

🎃 Flu shots: CDC's goal is for everyone 6 months and older to be vaccinated by the end of October, and that's this week. It takes about two weeks to build protection, so getting your shot now means you'll be covered well before Thanksgiving.

🦟 Trick-or-treat tip: the mosquitoes that spread West Nile virus are most active from dusk to dawn, which is exactly trick-or-treating time. Mosquito samples in Harris County are still testing positive this fall. Put on an EPA-registered repellent before you head out, and a costume with long sleeves doesn't hurt either.

If you have questions about which flu shot is right for you or your family, call or message the office and we'll talk it through.

Has your family checked "flu shot" off the list before Halloween?

Have you ever sat in an exam room telling your whole health story, again, to someone you just met, while watching the clock?

That's one of the reasons I practice direct primary care.

Here's what that looks like at Milepost Medical:
• The same doctor every time. I get to know you, your history, and what matters to you, so we're never starting from scratch.
• Unhurried visits. There's room for your whole list, not just the first item, and room to actually talk about the plan.
• A simple monthly membership. You know what you're paying, and our relationship is built around your care rather than a billing code.

Primary care works best as a relationship, not a transaction. When something comes up, whether it's a new symptom, a lab result you're worried about, or just a question that's been nagging at you, you have a doctor who already knows you.

If you're curious whether direct primary care is a good fit for you or your family, I'm always happy to answer questions.

What matters most to you when it comes to your doctor: time, continuity, or knowing what you'll pay?

Ever leave a doctor's visit and remember your most important question in the parking lot?

Midweek tip: before your next appointment, take five minutes to prep.
• Jot down your top 3 questions, most important first
• Snap a photo of every medication and supplement bottle you take
• Bring any home readings, like blood pressure or blood sugar logs
• Note when symptoms started and what makes them better or worse

That little bit of prep helps your doctor see the full picture, and helps you leave with a plan you actually understand.

At Milepost Medical, unhurried visits with the same doctor mean there's room for your whole list, not just the first item.

Remember last winter, when it felt like everyone you knew was down with the flu at the same time? This is the window to get ahead of that.

Flu season has started here in Texas. In the most recent state report (Oct 4–10), the share of hospital lab tests coming back positive for flu doubled in a single week. Overall flu activity is still low for now, so this is the sweet spot: get your flu shot before things ramp up.

A quick fall check-in for your household:
• Flu shot for everyone 6 months and older, ideally by the end of October
• Adults 65+: ask about the higher-dose (enhanced) flu vaccine, which is preferred for your age group
• Hand-washing and staying home when you're sick still go a long way. Right now a lot of the coughs and sniffles going around are common cold viruses.

And one Houston reminder: cooler mornings don't mean the mosquitoes are gone. West Nile virus is still active in Harris County, so keep the repellent handy at dusk and dawn, wear long sleeves outdoors when you can, and dump standing water around the yard. It's a pleasant, dry week ahead, perfect for being outside. Just bring the bug spray.

If you have questions about which flu shot is right for you or your family, we're happy to talk it through.

Has your family gotten flu shots yet this fall, or is it still on the to-do list?

Well, this is shocking… or rather, NOT shocking. ⚡🐙

Milepost Medical has lost power, so the office is closed today, Tuesday, Oct 13. Our octopus checked the computer's pulse, and it's officially flatlining.

We're sorry for the inconvenience! Please send us a portal message or leave a voicemail, and we'll get back to you as soon as the lights come back on. If you have an emergency, call 911.

Thanks for your patience. We'll be back and fully charged soon! 💜

Heads up, Milepost family! 🐙

Shelby is holding down the office solo this Monday and Tuesday, and she's doing the work of about eight arms.

If a call goes to voicemail or a reply takes a little longer than usual, please be patient. Leave a message or send a portal note and she'll get back to you as fast as she can. Some extra kindness this week would mean a lot! 💜

If your livelihood depends on a medical certificate, you need more than a rushed checklist. You need a doctor who knows the FAA lanes — Class 1, 2, and 3 — and will walk the paperwork with you when a case isn't simple.

At Milepost Medical we see Houston-area pilots for aviation medical exams, including complex situations. Efficient scheduling, clear next steps, and a clinic that understands what get flying / stay flying actually means.

Kids are back in school, cooler mornings are creeping in, and that first scratchy throat of the season is already making the rounds in Houston homes. Good news: statewide flu-like visits are still low right now (about 1.7% of visits for the week ending Sep 19), COVID hospital admissions are moderate, and RSV stays low — so this is the calm window, not the panic window.

A few simple moves from Dr. Amie:
• If a flu shot is right for you or your kids, getting it before things pick up helps your body build protection in time
• Handwashing, sleep, and staying home when you're truly sick still do more than most gadgets
• Call or message us if fever, breathing trouble, or symptoms that just won't turn the corner — especially for little ones and grandparents

What is Direct Primary Care?

At Milepost Medical, DPC means you join as a member and we put the relationship first — same-day or next-day access when you need us, longer visits, and a doctor (Dr. Amie) who knows your kids, your history, and your goals. It’s primary care for newborns through older adults, plus aviation medical exams and sleep medicine when those fit your life.

No rushed 7-minute slots. No bouncing between portals hoping someone calls back. When something comes up, you reach your clinic team.

Curious whether membership is a fit? Message the office or visit milepostmedical.com. Happy to answer questions — no pressure.
