<\/figure>\n\n\n\n\u201cOur staff enjoys working together, and we share values in taking care of our patients. All of our providers love primary care because we really can establish lasting relationships,\u201d said Lanham. \u201cWe get to see our patients and their families grow and change, and [we] love being there to support them along the way. Each day at work in primary care brings a variety of people with an even larger variety of medical needs. BMC has an amazing staff who truly care for the patients we are honored to care for. We value our patient\u2013provider relationships, and I think this shows in our patient care.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The dedicated staff at BMC also includes Medical Director Dr. Rosalie Padilla, who trained at the University of Puerto Rico and completed her internal medicine residency in Washington, D.C. Padilla, who is bilingual, and her husband, Dr. Scott Sims, have called Bowling Green \u201chome\u201d since 1987. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Malorie Mann, a native of Bowling Green, serves on staff as a nurse practitioner. A Western Kentucky University Nursing Program graduate, Mann received her Master of Science in nursing as a family nurse practitioner at Northern Kentucky University. She previously worked in the neonatal intensive care unit, pediatric intensive care unit, and birthing center at the University of Kentucky Medical Center before joining BMC in 2022.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
BMC is accepting new patients and accepts most insurance, including Medicare and Medicaid. Same-day appointments are often available, and they also offer patients an affordable option to pay with cash. X-ray and laboratory equipment are conveniently located on-site, reducing the need for patients to make multiple stops and the overall health care cost. Established patients can also enjoy the ease of telemedicine appointments. \u201cWe see patients for wellness visits, chronic disease management, such as diabetes and high blood pressure, and acute illness and injuries. We offer occupational health services with Department of Transportation physicals and drug screens, TB screening, and pre-employment physicals. This year, we are planning to expand our occupational health services. We also offer\u00a0Bluegrass Weight Loss and Aesthetics right here in our office. This clinic offers medically supervised weight loss programs using medications and diet plans. Botox Cosmetic, Juv\u00e9derm, and PCA Skincare are also available, and we typically run monthly specials on these services.\u201d GN\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" BENJAMIN FRANKLIN once said, \u201cAn ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.\u201d Physician Assistant Beth Lanham of Bluegrass Medical Care (BMC) encourages everyone to follow this advice.
