Some things in life stick with us for a while. This includes chronic conditions that are managed until they resolve, come and go with the seasons, or sometimes remain with us for a lifetime. We know that having an ongoing health concern can affect more than physical or mental health and value our role caring for patients as whole individuals rather than through the lens of their disease. Some chronic illnesses we manage on our own and others we collaborate with local specialists such as cardiologists, psychiatrists and oncologists. A few examples of chronic conditions are asthma, heart disease, diabetes, IBD, psoriasis, hormone disorders, malignancy, mood disorders, and allergies.
