Preventive care services are those that help to prevent illness or injury and detect health problems early. These services can include immunizations, screenings for cancer and other diseases, and counseling on healthy lifestyle choices.

Immunizations can help protect against serious illnesses such as COVID-19, influenza, pneumonia, and meningitis. Screenings can detect cancers, such as breast and colon cancer, at an early stage when they are most treatable. Additionally, counseling on healthy lifestyle choices can help prevent conditions such as obesity and heart disease.

Preventive care services are an important part of staying healthy. Talk to your doctor about which services are right for you.

There are many different types of physical exams that doctors can perform, but they all have one common goal: to assess the health of their patients.

Some of the most common types of physical exams include general checkups, sports physicals, and well-woman visits. During a general checkup, our provider will usually take a medical history and perform a physical exam. They may also order some tests, such as blood work or a urine test, to check for any underlying health conditions. A sports physical is similar to a general checkup, but it also includes a few extra tests to make sure that an athlete (of any age or ability) is healthy enough to participate in their chosen sport. A well-woman visit is a physical exam that is specifically for women. It usually includes a Pap smear, which is a test to check for cervical cancer, as well as a breast exam.

Physical exams are an important part of preventive healthcare and they can help catch health problems early when they are most treatable.

Our providers are trained and experienced in providing appropriate wound care. This most often involves the cleaning, stitching (if necessary), and dressing of lacerations, bruises, cuts, scrapes, or minor burns.
