Frequently Asked Questions

Everyday Health, Explained

What does primary care cover?
Primary care is your first stop for everyday health needs. We handle checkups, chronic condition management, sick visits, prescriptions, lab work, mental health screenings, and more. Think of it as your home base for staying well.
Can I use Upbeat Health for both routine visits and urgent issues?
Yes! We’re here for it all — from annual physicals and preventive care to same-day sick visits and follow-ups. Whether you’re managing long-term health or just feeling off, we’ve got you covered.
How often should I see a primary care provider?
At least once a year for a wellness check. If you have ongoing conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes, or anxiety, you may need more frequent visits. Staying consistent helps catch issues early and keep you feeling your best.
What if I need labs, imaging, or a specialist?
We can order lab work, imaging, and referrals when needed. We’ll help coordinate next steps and keep everything connected, so your care stays smooth and stress-free.
Do I need to be sick to make an appointment?
Not at all. In fact, we love seeing you before anything’s wrong. Preventive care — like screenings, vaccines, and health coaching — is one of the best ways to stay ahead of issues and stay Upbeat.
Frequently Asked Questions

Your Wound Care Questions, Answered

What kinds of wounds do you treat?
We treat a wide range of wounds, including cuts, scrapes, burns, post-surgical wounds, diabetic ulcers, and slow-healing or infected wounds. Whether it’s minor or more complex, we’re here to help you heal safely.
Do I need a referral for wound care from Upbeat Health?
No referral needed. Just book an appointment — we offer same-day and next-day visits to keep things easy and timely, whether it’s a new wound or one that’s not healing as expected.
How do I know if a wound needs medical attention?
If a wound is deep, bleeding heavily, shows signs of infection (like redness, warmth, swelling, or pus), or isn’t healing after a few days, it’s time to get it checked out. Trust your gut — if it doesn’t look or feel right, we’re here.
Can you help with wound infections?
Yes. We can assess the wound, clean it properly, and prescribe antibiotics if needed. Treating infections early is key to avoiding complications and promoting faster healing.
What should I do before my wound care visit?
Gently clean the area with soap and water, then cover it with a clean bandage. Avoid using hydrogen peroxide or alcohol — they can slow healing. If the wound is bleeding, apply pressure and keep it elevated if possible.
Frequently Asked Questions

Let’s Make Sense of Medical Weight Loss

How do the weight loss medications work?

The most commonly prescribed medications for weight loss belong to a drug class called GLP-1 receptor agonists. GLP-1 medications have been found to be effective for weight loss in addition to their primary use in managing type 2 diabetes through several mechanisms: increasing satiety, reducing food cravings, slowing digestion, improving nutrient absorption, and increasing energy.

Other weight-loss boosting/boosting injections offered such as MIC-B12 (Methionine, Inositol, Choline) are amino acids and vitamins that are proven to aid in the breakdown of fats, support proper insulin function and blood sugar regulation, and prevent build-up of fat in the liver.

What are the side effects?

Treatments are generally well-tolerated but may have side effects like nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea. No down time is expected. It’s important to note that the availability of specific medications and their formulations may vary depending on regional regulations.

Will my insurance cover the costs?

Insurances do not typically cover the use of any GLP-1 Medication for weight loss. However, if you have been diagnosed with Type II Diabetes, it is best call to call your insurance provider and find out if these medications will be covered.

How does Semaglutide compare to Phentermine?

There are no studies on the safety and efficacy on the long-term use of Phentermine for weight loss. In clinical trials, the weight loss maintained on Phentermine combined with Topiramate (Topamax) is only at 41% to 49% to those who lost weight greater or equal to 5% using this combination. Semaglitude is FDA-approved for long-term weight loss management, and weight loss maintenance rate is proven to be at 67%-87%.

Why do I need Methyl-B12 instead of the Regular B-12?

Methylcobalamin-B12 is the active and bioavailable form of vitamin B12. Active and Bioavailable forms of vitamins can be readily used by the body and are typically more effective in carrying out functions. The regular B12 or Cyanocobalamin requires the body to convert it to its active form – Methylcobalamin in order to carry out its functions, hence, in patients who do not have good metabolism, the regular B12 may not be as effective.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Every Man Should Know

What are the most important health screenings for men?
Men should prioritize regular screenings for blood pressure, cholesterol, blood glucose (diabetes), prostate health, colon cancer, and mental health. Age, family history, and lifestyle can influence how often these are needed, so it’s best to consult your doctor for a personalized plan.
How can I naturally boost testosterone levels?

Natural ways to support healthy testosterone include regular strength training, getting enough quality sleep, reducing stress, maintaining a healthy weight, and eating a balanced diet rich in protein, healthy fats, and essential nutrients like zinc and vitamin D.

When should I start seeing a doctor about prostate health?
Most men should begin discussing prostate health with their doctor around age 50 — or earlier if they have a family history of prostate issues or are in a higher-risk group. Early conversations can help determine the right time for screenings like a PSA test.
What are the warning signs of low testosterone?
Common symptoms include fatigue, decreased libido, mood changes, trouble concentrating, and reduced muscle mass. If you’re experiencing these, a blood test can help confirm if low testosterone is the cause.
How does stress impact men’s health?
Chronic stress can lead to weight gain, poor sleep, lowered testosterone, high blood pressure, and increased risk of heart disease. Managing stress through exercise, mindfulness, therapy, or lifestyle changes is crucial for long-term health.
