Dr. Lewis specialized in Family Medicine so she could help individuals and families, in all stages of life, face health challenges with confidence and to help prevent illness when possible. Her patients’ success in health and confidence in times of illness translates into her success as a physician.   

Access to your personal physician is key in both maintaining and achieving quality of life, as well as expert guidance when illness intrudes. Accessing Dr. Lewis via non traditional means, including e-mail consultations and phone consultations, opens all kinds of new opportunities in management of chronic illnesses.

An example of using new access methods is e-mailing blood pressure readings and logs of blood sugar measurements to Dr. Lewis, who then can then guide you on changes in medications without you having to leave your house or job. Some conditions will always require a physical examination at an office visit, but ongoing care of chronic illness can be managed through other means in addition to the traditional office visit.

Dr. Lewis also believes in direct accountability to her patients for measuring the quality of care she provides. She believes that her care must engage her patients in their own health. In order to effectively do this, she must make sure she explains the reasoning behind the many choices we face as health care consumers. Quality health care involves not only access to your physician, but also understanding what you are taught by your doctor.

Finally, Mountain View Family HealthCare believes that the pursuit of wellness involves personal investment of patients. When individuals choose to invest in their own health, they have made a conscious decision to take personal responsibility for their welfare.

Investments like this require the expert guidance of a physician who can get to know you and your individual needs and goals. When individuals invest time and money in Mountain View Family HealthCare, they can expect expert compassionate care that provides information during times of illness and individualized guidance towards wellness goals.
