Appointment preparation
Before booking primary care
You can make your visit go smoothly by jotting down the main reason you're coming in, your current medications, allergies, pharmacy, insurance plan, recent records, and any questions on your mind. If your visit follows recent urgent care, a hospital stay, specialist care, labs, imaging, or a medication change, bring those details along if you have them.
If you're traveling in from Prescott Valley, Chino Valley, Dewey-Humboldt, or another nearby Yavapai County community, it helps to double-check directions, office hours, insurance details, and any forms before you head out.

Common questions
Common Questions About Primary Care
How do new patients book primary care in Prescott, AZ?
You can use the appointment link or give us a call to ask about scheduling primary care. Before your first visit, take a look at our patient forms page and gather your insurance information, ID, medication details, and any records you have on hand so your appointment goes smoothly.
What should I bring to a primary care visit at First Choice Medical Center?
Please bring a photo ID, your insurance card, a current medication list, any recent records you have, and the main questions you want to talk about. If you track home readings or have updates from a specialist, bring those too. It helps us understand why you are here and plan your next step.
Can primary care handle routine follow-up and prevention planning?
Yes. We often use primary care visits for routine follow-up, medication review, referrals, lab discussion, and care-plan updates. If you are dealing with a new illness symptom, a sick visit may be a better fit. If you want to focus on prevention, take a look at our annual wellness visits.
Is primary care the right place for emergencies?
No. Primary care is not the right place for emergency symptoms. For emergency symptoms, call 911. Examples can include chest pain, stroke symptoms, severe breathing trouble, major injury, severe allergic reaction, or any condition that may need immediate emergency care.
