High blood pressure.
A clearer next step.
Whether you have a new elevated reading or an established diagnosis of hypertension, start with a review of your readings, medical history, and current treatment.
Our approach
A conversation.

Your evaluation and treatment depend on your individual needs. These are topics you can discuss with your care team.
Consider contributing factors
Review medications, supplements, health conditions, and daily habits that may affect blood pressure. Further evaluation depends on your clinical findings.
Discuss treatment options
Work with your clinician on an individualized plan that may include lifestyle changes and medication. Do not change prescribed treatment without guidance.

Common questions
Understand your next step.
What counts as high blood pressure?
The 2025 AHA/ACC guideline classifies adult office blood pressure as follows (mm Hg):
- Normal: top number below 120 AND bottom number below 80.
- Elevated: top number 120-129 AND bottom number below 80.
- Stage 1 hypertension: top number 130-139 OR bottom number 80-89.
- Stage 2 hypertension: top number 140 or higher OR bottom number 90 or higher.
Use the higher category if the two numbers fall in different categories. Diagnosis usually relies on properly measured, repeated readings and, when appropriate, home or ambulatory monitoring. Treatment goals are individualized.
Does one high reading establish hypertension?
A diagnosis requires clinical assessment. Bring your readings and discuss how your clinician will evaluate them.
Is ambulatory blood pressure monitoring available?
Yes. Soriano Med offers ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM), which records readings during everyday activities and sleep, usually over 24 hours. We use it when clinically appropriate for suspected white-coat hypertension and elevated office readings without an established hypertension diagnosis. It helps distinguish an office-related rise from sustained high blood pressure. Your clinician will review whether ABPM fits your situation; scheduling and coverage should be confirmed with the office.
