Annual Wellness Exams

What are annual wellness exams?

Annual wellness exams are medical evaluations that screen for health problems and ensure you or your child stays as healthy as possible. They’re important, as many minor health concerns are easily treatable when detected early. Solution Health Specialists also offers vaccinations and other forms of preventive care to reduce the risk of illness or disease.

What happens during annual wellness exams?

Annual wellness exams at Solution Health Specialists often begin with an assessment of your vital signs (blood pressure, pulse, etc.). Your provider also weighs you and determines your body mass index (BMI). They assess growth and development in children.

Medical history review

Your primary care provider discusses your medical history, medications, and lifestyle — and asks about symptoms you might have. 

Physical exam

During a physical exam, the Solution Health Specialists experts look for signs of potential health concerns. They assess your breathing, heartbeat, eyes, throat, and more. The Solution Health Specialists team provides breast and pelvic exams (including Pap smears) for women and prostate exams for men.

Diagnostic testing

You might need lab work, sexually transmitted disease (STD) testing, vision and hearing screenings, imaging procedures, or other diagnostic tests during annual wellness exams.

Treatment

Solution Health Specialists offers medically supervised weight loss, nutrition and lifestyle counseling, stress management, medication management, vaccinations, and specialist referrals. 

The team personalizes a plan that best suits you and follows up to ensure an effective outcome. They offer general medicine, cardiology, internal medicine, wound care, neurology, pulmonology services, and much more.

How often should I schedule wellness exams?
