General Checkups

General Checkups

Keeping on track with your health starts with you. Establishing good health habits early means you may enjoy a longer, healthier, happier life. And by getting recommended health checks at a relevant time, you can work with your healthcare team to improve your chances of preventing health problems throughout your life.

Having a regular doctor or practice has several advantages. Most importantly, you will build a relationship over time and are more likely to feel comfortable talking openly. Also, your doctor will get to know you and understand your health needs and concerns. By having a regular doctor or practice, your medical history stays in the one place, and is more likely to be kept up to date.
