Week 5: Case Study
For this case study, we have Mr. Jones who is a 60-year-old African American
coming to the clinic for his six-month follow-up for his hyperlipidemia and weight
problems. In diagnosing this patient’s condition, I will gather a thorough history of
present illness, physical, laboratory, and diagnostic studies to assist me with
