Doctor who cares?

Looking for a doctors office who actually wants to invest in my lifestyle. I recently went to a Family Practice Center and I was shocked with how hands-off they were. Didn't touch me or palpate, just talking and bloodwork, which I guess is enough... But I want a doctor who is interested in my physical fitness, mobility, has diet recommendations. Basically someone who wants to push me to be even better. I feel like not having diabetes has been the bar to clear, and then they tell you to come back in 12 months for bloodwork. Maybe that's not the role of a doctor and they have more important stuff to do, but I was hoping to find a doctor that was doing more than checking the checkboxes in my well visits.
