Medical Practice - Leland, North Carolina, United States
As a family practitioner, J. Wellington Adams, MD, embraces the values of generations of doctors before him who have dedicated their lives to treating entire families -- from birth through old age. Dr. Adams believes in developing a long-lasting relationship with each patient, through his commitment to keeping them healthy for a lifetime. Dr. Adams' comprehensive approach to care takes into account his patients' overall health. He makes recommendations for treatment that focus on promoting health and preventing disease -- not just controlling symptoms.Coastal Carolinas Health understands the needs of busy families. Offering same-day appointments means parents don't have to worry another day about their sick child. We understand that sick patients want to be seen right away. According to Dr. Adams, the single most important thing patients can do for their health is to be involved in their own care. "An educated patient is a healthier patient," he says. "We teach out patients how to control and better manage chronic conditions, as well as prevent health problems, by making wise, educated lifestyle choices."Coastal Carolinas Health provides compassionate outpatient medical care to the families of Brunswick County and the Cape Fear region. Our patients are cared for by the physicians of Coastal Family Medicine at New Hanover Regional Medical Center while admitted to the hospital. This provides us the opportunity to concentrate on the care of our patients in the office.
