Acute & Sick Care
When someone in the family wakes up sick, you should not have to choose between waiting weeks or sitting in an urgent-care lobby. Same-day and walk-in sick visits are offered based on daily availability.
- Same-day sick visits
- Walk-in sick visits (based on availability)

Rising Sun is a primary care office, not an emergency department. If you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911.
Request an AppointmentChronic Disease Management
Chronic conditions need steady follow-up rather than one-time visits. Dr. Molinar tracks results over time, adjusts treatment and coordinates specialist care when a condition needs it.
- Diabetes care and education
- Hypertension and high blood pressure
- High cholesterol / hyperlipidemia
- Asthma and allergy management
- Thyroid disorders
- Heart disease risk management
- Arthritis and osteoporosis
- Other common chronic conditions
- Weight management and obesity programs
Pediatric Care
Children are cared for within a family medicine practice, which means siblings and parents can often be seen the same day. Rising Sun is not a pediatric specialty clinic; complex pediatric conditions are referred when specialty care is appropriate.
- Newborn care and follow-up
- Well-child visits
- Developmental screenings
- Childhood immunizations
- Pediatric asthma care
- Pediatric allergy care
- Behavioral health screening
- ADHD and anxiety screening

Women's Health
Routine women's health care is handled within primary care. Rising Sun is a family medicine practice rather than an OB/GYN specialty practice, and refers to specialty care when needed.
- Well-woman exams
- Pap smears and cervical cancer screening
- Breast exams
- Contraception counseling and management
- Pills, patches, Nexplanon and IUDs
- Pregnancy testing

Men's Health & Senior Care
Men often go years between visits. Rising Sun uses those visits efficiently, and provides the medication review and safety checks that matter most for older adults.

- Senior wellness visits
- Fall-risk checks
- Medication reviews for older adults
Behavioral & Mental Health Support
Mood and anxiety concerns often surface first in a primary care visit. Rising Sun provides screening and basic management for common conditions, and works with mental health providers when more specialized care is appropriate.

- Anxiety screening
- Basic medication management for common conditions
- Referrals to mental health providers
- Collaborative care when appropriate

- A1C and glucose testing
- Rapid strep, flu, COVID and RSV testing
- Urine testing
- Blood draws
- EKG
