More About Our Practice
Ages 13 and Up
Copperfield Family Medicine treats patients from age 13 years and upward. We believe that for younger folks, their health is best managed by a pediatrician.
Insurance Claims
We file claims directly to most medical insurance carriers as a courtesy to our patients. Our billing department is electronically in contact with many of the insurance companies and will be able to tell you if you have met your deductible in most cases.
Laboratory Testing
For your convenience, almost every lab test we do can be collected in the office. There is virtually never a need to travel to an off-site lab. For our doctors' tests, we proudly collect specimens for Quest Diagnostics/Berkeley Heart Labs, BioReference Labs, Boston Heart Diagnostics, LipoScience, SpectraCell, CardioDx, CPL, and others. There are dedicated phlebotomists from Quest Diagnostics stationed here for our exclusive use, collecting specimens to send to any lab we choose.
Carotid (CIMT) Scans
For some of the earliest possible detection of cardiovascular disease, we are pleased to offer in-office Carotid Intima Media Thickness testing. This completely non-invasive, painless B-mode ultrasound is capable of alerting us to the presence of potential problems within the blood vessels before any symptoms develop. It is of great value especially for the following individuals: people who have family history of heart disease, stroke, or peripheral vascular disease; patients with high blood pressure, high cholesterol/triglycerides, and/or diabetes; and smokers.
Referrals/Specialists
Our office keeps a large database of colleagues in most medical specialties. If the need arises to see a specialist or obtain some ancillary service, we will be pleased to recommend someone.

Educating Our Patients
It is not uncommon for patients to have a number of questions or concerns about their health.Our philosophy is this: the more you know, the better you do.
Patients are often on a great many medicines, yet do not understand why; this is the perfect set-up for treatment failure. It is extremely important for them to be an active part of the healthcare team--actually the most important part.
When patients know the reasons they are supposed to take their medicines, they usually do.
Drs. Hillert take pride in their efforts to teach their patients how important it is to follow the plan of care. Patients are frequently given customized materials written by the doctors in order to make the information as clear as possible. It is vital for patients to learn about their disease(s), because no one should care more about your health than you do.
