Included Office Procedures

​

One of the biggest advantages of Lighthouse Family Medicine membership is access to many common office procedures right here in our clinic. These services are often available without the delays, referrals, or additional office visits commonly required in larger healthcare systems. Many of these procedures are included as part of your membership, saving you time, hassle, and unnecessary trips to urgent care

 

​

Joint Injections

Joint injections can help reduce inflammation, relieve pain, and improve mobility in affected joints. Common treatment areas include knees, shoulders, hips, and other joints affected by arthritis, overuse injuries, or chronic inflammation.

Trigger Point Injections

Trigger point injections may help relieve painful muscle knots and chronic muscle tension that can contribute to headaches, neck pain, shoulder pain, and back pain.

Ear Irrigation (Ear Lavage)

Excess ear wax can cause hearing loss, discomfort, ringing in the ears, dizziness, and a sensation of fullness. Ear irrigation safely removes impacted wax and often provides immediate relief.

Many benign skin lesions can be evaluated and removed in the office. This may include skin tags, seborrheic keratoses, and other non-cancerous growths that cause irritation or cosmetic concerns.
