Do I need a referral to see a primary care doctor in Lafayette?

No. You can book directly with Center One Medical without a referral. However, if you need a specialist, we will provide a referral from our office.

What insurance does Center One Medical accept?

Can I see a primary care doctor for mental health concerns?

Yes. Our providers regularly address anxiety, depression, and stress-related conditions as part of whole-person care.

What is the difference between a family medicine doctor and an internal medicine doctor?

Family medicine doctors treat patients of all ages, including children. Internal medicine doctors (internists) specialize in adult medicine and often manage more complex chronic conditions. Center One Medical offers both.

How often should I see my primary care doctor?

Most adults benefit from at least one annual wellness visit. If you have a chronic condition, your provider may recommend more frequent check-ins — typically every 3 to 6 months.
