Medical Weight Loss
Some alarm signs or symptoms that are not typically found in IBS include blood in the stool or in the toilet bowl, which may be attributable to hemorrhoids which often coexist with IBS, however this typically warrants further investigation to be certain a more serious underlying condition such as a cancer is not present. Other concerning findings would include anemia, unintentional weight loss, and nighttime stooling.

Internal Medicine
Dr. Kevin Weiland, MD, a Board Certified internal medicine specialist said, “Ironically, the shot was put in the arm where my small pox vaccine scar is. My son, 10 years ago, asked me why I have a scar there and I told him it was from my smallpox vaccine. He asked why he does not have one. I told him, “Because it worked.” Dr. Oksana Anand, MD, double Board Certified gastroenterologist and internalist expressed how excited her young children were that she was able to be vaccinated before Christmas.

Colon Cancer

Endoscopy
If you have symptoms of IBS, speak with your gastroenterologist to discuss what further evaluation may be necessary such as blood tests, stool tests, and endoscopy (e.g. upper endoscopy or colonoscopy) as there are overlapping symptoms with IBS and other GI disorders. Your gastroenterologist can provide a comprehensive evaluation to arrive at your diagnosis and to discuss the various treatment options and which ones may be best for you.

Epilepsy
If a woman is ready for a pregnancy and hasn’t had a full physical exam with a pelvic exam, then they should arrange to have that done. They will get a comprehensive well woman exam with individualized testing and counseling, for instance if they need a pap, an STD screen, or labs done. We take a thorough medical history, a menstrual history, and a family history to assess the risk of having a baby with a genetic disorder. We review their medications, if any, and make recommendations with regards to what is safe to continue during pregnancy, and which aren’t. If someone needs to be transitioned to a medication that is safer during pregnancy, for instance certain meds for high blood pressure, we will initiate that. If it happens that a woman becomes pregnant unexpectedly, we would ask them to call us prior to stopping their meds because some meds, like thyroid meds and meds for diabetes, epilepsy, or asthma, need to be continued during the pregnancy.

Radiology
Recently, Rapid City Medical Center faced a challenge due to limited space. But they’re never ones to back down from a challenge. With their dedication to fiscal responsibility and the desire to grow, they ventured into property development. Through the purchase and renovation of the former Premier Mortgage building on Rapid City’s Tower Road, they’ve gained an additional 25,000 square feet to expand their medical services. This move not only supports their growth but also allows them to streamline ancillary services, such as radiology and laboratory work, leading to even greater efficiencies and cost savings.
Mammography
Throughout their history, Rapid City Medical Center has never shied away from embracing innovation. By combining medical expertise with talented business professionals, they’ve achieved remarkable milestones. From introducing advanced technologies like 3D mammography and telemedicine (activated within a mere 48 hours during the pandemic) to spearheading cutting-edge procedures in endoscopy/colonoscopy and pain management, they’ve consistently pushed the boundaries of what’s possible. Moreover, they’ve always prioritized affordable healthcare by offering services in office settings, bypassing the need for facility fees and saving money for both patients and employers with group health plans.
