Annual Exams

There are several instances when you may benefit from a checkup:

• When you're feeling unwell.
• If you notice symptoms that could indicate illness.
• For ongoing management of chronic conditions.
• To evaluate the effectiveness of a new medication.
• To address risk factors like obesity or smoking.
• Seeking prenatal care if you're pregnant.
• For guidance on lifestyle issues such as family planning, STD prevention, and maintaining a healthy diet, especially during adolescence.
• Based on your individual needs and concerns.

If it's been a while since your last visit, it's a good idea to schedule an appointment with your trusted doctor for regular checkups.

During your examination, your physician may:

• Identify any conditions requiring medical attention.
• Identify risk factors for potential illnesses.
• Provide recommendations for follow-up care and preventive measures.
