Preventative care consists of medical services that are aimed at preventing health problems before they occur. This includes vaccinations, screenings, check-ups, and patient counseling to prevent illnesses, disease, and other health-related issues.

Preventative care is important because it helps to maintain health, prevent the spread of infectious diseases, and identify health issues early when they are easier to treat. This approach can lead to better long-term health outcomes and can reduce healthcare costs by avoiding more serious conditions.

Our clinic offers a wide range of preventative care services including annual physical exams, vaccinations, health screenings (blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, cancer screenings), lifestyle counseling, and preventive medications.

The frequency of preventative care visits can vary based on your age, health history, and risk factors. Generally, an annual physical exam is recommended for most people. Other screenings and vaccinations may have different schedules. We recommend consulting with your healthcare provider to determine the best preventative care plan for you.

Many insurance plans cover preventative care services without a copayment, co-insurance, or deductible being met. However, coverage can vary depending on your specific insurance plan. We recommend checking with your insurance provider to understand what services are covered under your plan.

Yes, individuals with pre-existing conditions can and should receive preventative care. In some cases, additional or specialized preventative services may be recommended to manage your condition and prevent complications.

You can schedule a preventative care appointment by calling our clinic directly or by using our online appointment scheduling system. If you are a new patient, please ensure to provide your medical history and any relevant information prior to your visit.
