Proactive vs. Reactive Health Care: What’s the Difference?

We all have those friends or family who joke they don’t remember the last time they went to the doctor claiming they rarely get sick. Or we know those who are health-obsessed, always checking websites for the latest health news and asking their doctor questions. While it’s important to be proactive in your health, it’s equally important to find a balance between the two. Joining me today to tell us how we can strike a proactive balance in both our own and our family’s health care is Dr. Jeffry Jacqmein. Dr. Jacqmein is a board-certified family medicine physician with Baptist Primary Care.
