FMDH Glasgow Clinic Primary Care is a fully staffed primary care clinic
located within the Frances Mahon Deaconess Hospital facility. Our team
of compassionate providers, nurses, and support staff offer comprehensive
medical treatment to patients of all ages. A primary care provider is
“your” provider – the one you see when you have a non-urgent
medical concern for wellness consults and health-related issues. It’s
helpful to see a primary care provider because they can track your health
over time.

Establishing Primary Care
Are you new to our area and looking to establish Primary Care? After scheduling
your appointment with us, please contact your current primary care clinic
to sign a release of medical records to our facility. We require previous
medical records prior to your appointment.
*We do not need medical records for acute appointments, only to establish care.*
Your Partner in Healthcare
Primary care providers make organizing your healthcare much easier, as
they are the central point of contact for any specialists you may see.
They are able to guide your treatment, especially if you keep them updated
on your visits to specialists. Our primary care providers at FMDH can
also refer you to any local specialists you need to see for treatment.
Another benefit of having a primary family medicine provider is that they
can treat every member of your household.
Pediatric Respiratory Distress
Signs to look for as to when you should bring your child in right away
for an evaluation rather than waiting for an appointment the next day.
Increased breath rate: while variable for kids depending on age, if it’s
faster than their normal rate when
resting, that could indicate respiratory distress.
Retractions: when the chest pulls in with each breath, especially around
the collarbone and ribs.
Nasal flaring: when the nostrils widen when breathing in to let in more air.
Noises when breathing, like grunts (“ugh” sounds), wheezing
(whistling sounds), or like mucus is stuck in the throat
Pale or bluish skin of lips, around eyes, on hands/feet (especially the
nailbeds).
Position changes, like leaning forward when sitting.
