Life gets busy. Between work, family, and daily obligations, it is easy to push your own health to the bottom of the to-do list. You might think, “I feel fine, so why do I need to see the doctor?”
The answer is simple: Prevention is easier than the cure.
Why Your Annual Visit is Vital
An annual physical is the cornerstone of Family Medicine. It is our opportunity to catch potential issues before they become life-altering problems.
- Silent Conditions: High blood pressure and high cholesterol often have no symptoms until damage is done. Screening catches them early.
- Baseline Health: We establish what is “normal” for you, so we can spot changes quickly in the future.
- Medication Review: Are your current prescriptions still necessary? Do dosages need adjusting?
- Vaccinations: Staying up to date on flu, tetanus, and other vaccines protects you and your community.
- Relationship Building: The best time to find a doctor you trust is before you have an emergency.
Don’t wait for a symptom to appear. Take control of your future health by scheduling your annual wellness visit at Unity Medical Wellness today.
