Diarra Health · Geriatric Medicine
Caring for older adults is different. It requires time, attention, and a deep understanding of how medical conditions, medications, and life circumstances interact. At Diarra Health, we provide proactive, personalized geriatric care that goes beyond quick visits — focusing on prevention, function, and quality of life.
As we age, health becomes more complex — multiple conditions, multiple medications, and the interplay between physical health, cognitive function, and life circumstances. At Diarra Health in Tigard, Oregon, we apply geriatric medicine principles to every older adult we serve: taking time, thinking holistically, and always keeping quality of life at the center.
What's Included
Every aspect of our geriatric care program is designed to give older adults and their families the attention, access, and support they deserve.
Your health never feels rushed. Every appointment is a full hour — enough time to review medications, discuss concerns, assess function, involve family members, and build a care plan that actually reflects your life.
For patients who have difficulty traveling — due to mobility, cognitive challenges, or illness — Dr. Diarra comes to you. House call visits allow for comprehensive care in the comfort and safety of home, without the stress of getting to a clinic.
Video visits for follow-ups, medication reviews, results discussions, and family care conferences — from wherever you are. Telehealth extends access without requiring travel, and is available to patients anywhere in Oregon.
Lab work comes to the patient — not the other way around. Mobile lab services eliminate the need to travel to a draw site, making routine monitoring convenient and stress-free for older adults and their caregivers.
Coordinating and managing medical care orders for patients in skilled nursing facilities, assisted living, and memory care communities. Your physician stays actively involved regardless of where you reside.
Reach Dr. Diarra directly — no call centers, no after-hours nurse lines. For older adults and their families, knowing they can always reach their physician provides genuine peace of mind when it matters most.
Our Approach
"Older adults deserve a physician who has the time to actually know them — their history, their goals, their family, and what independence means to them."
At Diarra Health, we believe that quality geriatric care begins with a relationship — not a checklist. We take time to understand the whole person: not just their diagnoses and medications, but their daily function, their values, and what matters most to them and their families.
Our small panel model means Dr. Diarra can give each patient the focused attention that complex geriatric care requires. There are no rushed visits, no impersonal portals, and no middlemen between patient and physician.
We proactively address the issues that matter most to older adults and their caregivers: fall prevention, polypharmacy review, cognitive health, advance care planning, and transitions between care settings.
Whether you're looking for an ongoing primary care physician for yourself or a loved one, or need help navigating a complex medical situation in a facility setting, Diarra Health is here — and we stay here.
Who This Is For
Most primary care practices are not designed for the complexity of geriatric care. Diarra Health is. Our membership model ensures every older adult patient receives the time, access, and continuity that quality aging care requires.
Common Questions
Geriatric medicine is a subspecialty that focuses on the complex, interrelated health needs of older adults — how multiple chronic conditions, multiple medications, cognitive changes, and life circumstances interact with each other. Standard primary care appointments of 10–15 minutes are not designed for this complexity. At Diarra Health, geriatric visits are 60 minutes, allowing Dr. Diarra to review the complete picture and make thoughtful decisions.
