What does a wellness exam consist of?

During your wellness exam, our providers will generally look at all aspects of your health. Therefore, you should have a list of any medications you take regularly. You should also note any pain or other symptoms you’re experiencing and any recent test results. Typically, you can expect the following during your wellness exam at any of our facilities:

• Measure your weight, height, and body mass index (BMI)
• Review your family and medical history
• Conduct a health risk assessment.
• Discuss your lifestyle habits, like diet and exercise
• Perform a physical exam
• Review your current medications and immunizations
• Offer you any vaccinations you are due to receive

Our providers will also check your reflexes, heart rate, and other vital signs. Your wellness exam may also include lab testing and screenings to help identify underlying conditions where symptoms may never be present. We also encourage you to ask any questions about your health.
