Schuylkill Medical Associates, LLC

Schuylkill Medical Associates, LLC A Concierge House Call Practice for the home bound proudly serving Philadelphia and Camden County House calls were once a mainstay of the medical profession.

However, due in part to the ever–increasing cost of health care, the house call was replaced by doctors' offices, clinics and emergency rooms. The personal side of geriatric medicine often gets lost in today's health care environment. Schuylkill Medical Associates is leading the movement of house call doctors that hopes to reverse this trend. I do not have a brick and mortar office; instead, I see patients in the comfort and safety of their homes and am dedicated to providing experienced care to the elderly and homebound. I believe that communication and a team approach are crucial in helping a senior to age in his/her own home for as long as possible. I become the patient’s advocate and will help families navigate the daunting maze of challenges that can come with caring for a loved one. Like any primary care physician, I provide full scope acute and chronic disease management, pain management, preventive care, end of life care, wound and incontinence care, and more. I work closely with home nurses, therapists, social workers, care managers and specialists. I believe in the dignity of each individual and make it my goal to treat each patient with compassion and respect.

Happy Thanksgiving from Dr. Pluta and the entire team at Schuylkill Medical Associates!

As a former triathlete myself (although never competing in an Ironman), I know that these endurance races are no small feat. This woman is a true example of grit at the young age of 80! Anything is possible if you set your mind to it! We don't all have to aspire to be 80 year-old triathletes, but we ALL should make exercise a part of our daily routine, no matter how old we are!

Natalie Grabow became the first ever female finisher in the 80-84 category in Kona as 13 Age Group World Champions were crowned.

We have known for a long time that one of the keys to longevity is social connection which is why so many older patients had a drastic decline in their health during the isolation of the pandemic. I can't tell you how many times I have heard my families tell me that "Mom/Dad was never the same again after being isolated from family and friends".
In this article, Maria tells us that social connection was one of the reasons for her longevity.

"She had cells that seemed younger than her age," said Dr. Manel Esteller
