Questions & Answers
Conditions we treat: FAQs
What conditions does Complete Rural Medicine treat?
We treat a wide range of everyday and chronic conditions, including hormone imbalances, perimenopause and menopause, thyroid disorders, diabetes and prediabetes, high blood pressure and cholesterol, weight concerns, digestive disorders, autoimmune conditions, allergies, asthma, arthritis, pelvic floor and bladder concerns, and men's and women's health issues, at our Lincoln and Friend, NE clinics.
Do you treat chronic conditions like diabetes and high blood pressure?
Yes. Our board-certified family nurse practitioners provide ongoing management for chronic conditions such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, asthma and arthritis, including medication management, lab monitoring and lifestyle support.
Do you test and treat thyroid and hormone problems?
Yes. We evaluate symptoms and order appropriate lab work for thyroid disorders and hormone imbalances in women and men, then build a personalized plan that may include medication, hormone therapy, nutrition and lifestyle changes.
How is functional medicine different for chronic conditions?
Functional medicine looks for the underlying drivers of a condition, such as nutrition, gut health, inflammation, sleep and stress, and addresses them alongside standard medical treatment. You get both approaches from the same care team.
Do I need a referral to be seen?
No referral is needed to become a patient. Some insurance plans have their own referral rules, so check with your plan. If you need specialty care, we coordinate referrals for you.
Do you refer to specialists when needed?
Yes. When a condition needs specialty care, such as endocrinology, cardiology, rheumatology or gastroenterology, we refer you to a trusted specialist and stay involved as your primary care team.
Do you treat children?
Yes. Our family nurse practitioners care for patients of all ages, from children to older adults, at both clinics.
When should I go to the emergency room instead?
Call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room for chest pain, trouble breathing, signs of stroke such as face drooping or slurred speech, severe bleeding, or any life-threatening emergency.
