What is preventive medicine?

Preventive medicine is a health care field focused on preventing chronic diseases associated with unhealthy lifestyles. Its goals are to identify and treat potential health problems in their earliest stages before complications develop.

Ringside Health makes preventive medicine services available to members of the equestrian community at horse shows across the country.

The medical team has extensive knowledge about the unique challenges equestrians face when traveling and showing. Based on your health, lifestyle, and wellness goals, they design a preventive health care plan to optimize your well-being and safety.

The team can meet with you at the Wellington, Florida, office or through the virtual telehealth platform to discuss your needs for a preventive health care plan. Telehealth makes it easy for you to meet with your physician on your computer, smartphone, or tablet so that you stay on track with medical care wherever you are.
