Whether you’ve been diagnosed with hypertension or are at risk, our compassionate team is here to guide you toward better heart health.
Hypertension, also known as high blood pressure, is a chronic condition where the force of the blood against the walls of your arteries is consistently too high. Over time, uncontrolled hypertension can damage blood vessels, leading to serious complications like heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, and vision loss. Managing hypertension is crucial for preventing these complications and maintaining overall health.
At Excellence Primary Care, we provide comprehensive hypertension care that includes regular monitoring of blood pressure, prescription medications when necessary, lifestyle modifications, and dietary advice to help you maintain a healthy heart and lower blood pressure. Through a tailored approach, we empower you to take control of your health and prevent the negative effects of high blood pressure.
How Hypertension Care Works
The first step in managing hypertension is regular blood pressure monitoring. During your visit, we will check your blood pressure to assess whether it is within a healthy range. If your blood pressure is high, our healthcare providers will develop a personalized treatment plan that may include:
- Lifestyle Modifications: Encouraging a heart-healthy diet, weight management, regular physical activity, and stress reduction techniques.
- Prescription Medications: If necessary, medications such as ACE inhibitors, beta-blockers, or diuretics may be prescribed to help control blood pressure.
- Ongoing Monitoring: Regular follow-up appointments to track your blood pressure and adjust your treatment plan accordingly.
- Education and Support: We provide resources and counseling to help you make informed decisions about managing your hypertension.
By combining lifestyle changes and, when appropriate, medication, we help you lower your blood pressure and minimize risks of cardiovascular complications.

Effective hypertension care can help prevent or manage a variety of related health issues. Uncontrolled high blood pressure can lead to serious health problems that affect the heart, kidneys, brain, and more.
