👶👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Yes, We See Pediatric Patients! 👵❤️

At Martinsville Family Medicine, we truly mean family medicine!

We care for patients from newborns all the way through the elderly. From your child’s first visits and school physicals to managing chronic conditions in parents and grandparents, our team is here to care for your entire family.

We believe there are real benefits to having the whole family in one practice. We get to know your family, understand your medical history, and provide continuity of care through every stage of life.

A note for new pediatric patients:
Because we are a family practice, we only accept new pediatric patients when the parent(s) are also established patients with Martinsville Family Medicine. We want to care for the entire family — not just the kids!

🏠 One practice. One healthcare team. Your whole family.

We’re a family practice — and we’d love the opportunity to care for your entire family! ❤️

Independent Care. Your Choice. Your Community.

At Martinsville Family Medicine, we believe your healthcare decisions should be based on what is best for you—not on which hospital system owns your doctor’s practice.

Because we are an independent medical practice, we are not tied to a specific health system. That gives us the flexibility to refer our patients to the hospital, specialist, or medical center we believe is the best fit for their needs.

🏥 You choose where you receive your care.

Need specialty care locally? We can refer you to the providers who best meet your needs.

Want to go out of town? We can help make that happen, too. Depending on your situation, referrals may include major medical centers such as Carilion, Duke, or Wake Forest Baptist Health.

Our goal is simple: to help you get the right care in the right place.

One important reminder: Before choosing a hospital or medical center, make sure your health insurance is accepted there. This is especially important when receiving care across state lines. Insurance networks can be different from one state or health system to another, and your coverage may not be the same outside your local area.

At Martinsville Family Medicine, being independent means we can put our patients first when helping determine where they receive their care.

Independent practice. Personalized care. Your choice.

Care That Fits Your Schedule 🩺

When choosing a primary care practice, the number of providers matters.

A solo practice may have excellent care—but when that provider is on vacation, sick, or otherwise unavailable, the office may have to close or patients may have limited access to care.

At Martinsville Family Medicine, we believe having a team provides important advantages:

👩‍⚕️ Multiple providers — physicians, physician assistants, and a nurse practitioner working together
🤝 Team-based care — our providers can collaborate and support one another
📅 More appointment availability — different providers have different schedules and availability
⏰ Extended hours — we are open 56 hours each week
🌙 Open until 7 PM Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday
☀️ Saturday hours: 8 AM–12 PM

Having a larger team means you have more opportunities to be seen when you need care—and your provider doesn’t have to work alone.

When choosing your family medicine practice, think beyond just the provider. Think about the team behind your care.

💊 Understanding Medicare Part D Prescription Costs

Many Medicare patients are surprised by high prescription costs at the pharmacy, especially early in the year.

✅ Did you know?
In 2026, your annual out-of-pocket cost for covered Medicare Part D prescriptions is capped at $2,100. Once you reach that amount, you’ll pay $0 for covered Part D medications for the rest of the year.

✅ You don’t have to pay it all at once.
The Medicare Prescription Payment Plan lets many patients spread their prescription costs into predictable monthly payments over the year instead of facing large pharmacy bills early in the year.

📞 Contact your Medicare Part D plan or call 1-800-MEDICARE to learn if you’re eligible to enroll.

At Martinsville Family Medicine, we’re committed to helping our patients understand their Medicare benefits and get the medications they need.

Individual circumstances will vary based on your exact coverage and finances.

⏰ Why Your Appointment May Sometimes Run Behind

At Martinsville Family Medicine, we understand that your time is valuable, and we work hard every day to stay on schedule. Our providers and staff make every effort to see patients as close to their appointment times as possible.

However, family medicine is unique because no two patient visits are exactly alike. While some appointments are straightforward, others unexpectedly require significantly more time and attention than originally scheduled.

Sometimes a provider is helping a patient who is struggling with severe depression or thoughts of self-harm. Other times, we may be delivering life-changing news such as a cancer diagnosis, discussing complex test results, or managing a serious medical condition that requires immediate attention. We also work hard to accommodate urgent illnesses and medical emergencies whenever possible, even when our schedules are already full.

While these situations can occasionally cause delays, they are also reminders of why compassionate, patient-centered care matters. If you or a loved one were facing one of these difficult moments, you would want your provider to take the time needed to listen, explain, and help.

We appreciate your patience and understanding when delays occur. Please know that we are committed to being available for our patients, providing high-quality medical care, and treating every individual with the compassion and attention they deserve.

Thank you for trusting Martinsville Family Medicine with your healthcare.

📋 Why Does Your Doctor’s office Ask So Many Screening Questions?

Many patients wonder why they are asked questions about depression, falls, cancer screenings, to***co use, and other health concerns during routine visits.

The answer is simple: Medicare and other insurance programs require medical practices to perform and document certain preventive health screenings. These screenings help identify health issues early, when they are often easier and less costly to treat.

Some common screenings include:

✅ Depression screening
✅ Fall risk assessment
✅ Colon cancer screening
✅ Breast cancer screening (mammograms)
✅ Cervical cancer screening
✅ To***co use screening and counseling
✅ Blood pressure monitoring
✅ Diabetes screening and management
✅ Vaccination reviews

These measures are not intended to be intrusive. They are evidence-based tools designed to improve patient health, reduce preventable illnesses, and ensure patients receive recommended preventive care.

At Martinsville Family Medicine, our goal is to keep you healthy, not just treat you when you’re sick. We appreciate your patience when our staff asks these questions, as they are an important part of providing high-quality medical care and meeting Medicare’s standards for preventive health services.

Thank you for partnering with us in your healthcare journey! ❤️
