Replenishing Hydration, Restoring Vitality
Dehydration occurs when the body loses more fluids than it takes in, leading to an imbalance in electrolytes and impairing various bodily functions.
IV fluid therapy is a rapid and efficient method to replenish electrolytes and fluids directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system. This allows for quick absorption, providing relief from symptoms such as dizziness, fatigue, and dry mouth.
Whether for mild or severe cases of dehydration, you can trust Richter Family Medicine & Wellness to provide compassionate and comprehensive IV fluid therapy, helping you regain vitality and maintain optimal well-being.
Promoting Healing & Easing Discomfort
Infections can occur in various parts of the body, such as abscesses, cysts, or localized wounds. These infections often result in pain, swelling, redness, and can be accompanied by systemic symptoms like fever and fatigue.
Drainage of infections is a crucial aspect of infection management, as it helps remove pus, fluid, and infectious material from affected areas, reducing pressure and allowing the body’s natural defenses to function more effectively.
Expert Care for a Safe Recovery
At Richter Family Medicine & Wellness, we recognize the potential risks associated with minor animal bites and puncture wounds. Such injuries, though seemingly small, can carry the risk of infection and complications if not properly addressed.
Whether caused by pets or wildlife, our experienced healthcare professionals are equipped to provide expert care and ensure a safe recovery. We thoroughly assess each injury to determine the appropriate course of action, which may include wound cleansing, antibiotic treatment, and tetanus prophylaxis if necessary.
Relief and Management for Optimal Living
Allergies occur when the immune system reacts to harmless substances, triggering various symptoms such as sneezing, itching, hives, or respiratory issues.
Through comprehensive assessments and allergy testing, we identify specific triggers and develop personalized treatment plans, which may include medication, allergen avoidance strategies, or immunotherapy, providing relief and improvement of quality of life.
Minor Injuries, Major Care
We thoroughly assess the severity of each injury or skin condition to determine the appropriate treatment, which may involve wound cleaning, dressing changes, topical medications, or soothing creams.
Whether it’s a simple laceration, a minor burn, or a bothersome rash, Richter Family Medicine & Wellness is dedicated to providing expert care and support, so you can get back to your daily activities with confidence and ease.
Swift Relief and Effective Healing
An abscess is a localized collection of pus that forms as a result of a bacterial infection. Commonly occurring in areas like skin, gums, or internal organs, abscesses can lead to pain, swelling, and redness.
We prioritize your well-being and employ appropriate drainage techniques, along with antibiotic therapy when necessary, to provide swift relief and promote healing.
Putting You Back in Motion
Sprains refer to the stretching or tearing of ligaments, while strains involve the stretching or tearing of muscles or tendons. These injuries can result from overuse, sudden movements, or accidents, causing pain, swelling, and limited mobility.
Our expert team employs a combination of therapeutic methods, including rest, physical therapy, pain management, and immobilization techniques when necessary. We focus on alleviating your symptoms and rehabilitating the affected area, promoting optimal healing and a return to your regular activities.
Confidential Care for Optimal Sexual Health
Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) are infections that spread through sexual contact and can have serious health consequences if left untreated. Our experienced healthcare professionals provide non-judgmental and compassionate care, ensuring that every patient feels comfortable and supported throughout the testing and treatment process.
We offer a range of testing options to screen for common STIs, and our team is well-equipped to administer appropriate treatment for positive results. We prioritize your privacy and confidentiality, handling your results with utmost discretion.
Restoring Urinary
Well-Being

At Richter Family Medicine & Wellness, our professionals are well-versed in diagnosing and treating UTIs promptly to provide relief and prevent complications. We employ comprehensive assessments and urine testing to determine the infection’s severity and the most suitable treatment plan, which may involve antibiotics and pain management.
