Importance of Annual Wellness Exams. Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, many of us have been leery about going to the doctors office for our annual wellness exams and for regular check ups. This is a natural response. We want to do our part to protect ourselves and our loved ones. However, most physician offices take extra precautions in ensuring your safety as well as their staff’s. It begins by screening each person who enters the facility for any symptoms of COVID-19, meticulous sanitizing, and treating ill patients virtually. Your health comes first. An annual physical is a great opportunity to go over your entire medical history, address any concerns, do a full exam, order appropriate tests, update vaccines, perform cancer screening and much more. Do not delay your yearly exam. Whether you are healthy or have chronic health conditions, an annual exam is an opportunity to address your health. Prevention is the best medicine.
