Other services offered to patients include adult immunizations, cancer screenings, a Travel Clinic and frequent educational events on Facebook Live.

After hours, patients are able to reach Dr. Larew directly on his cell phone for medical urgencies and concerns, a benefit shown to significantly reduce the need to visit the emergency room or be admitted to the hospital.
