What Are Preventive Health Screenings?
Preventive screenings are medical tests that assess your risk for common conditions, such as heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. Based on your age, sex, family history, and lifestyle, your provider will recommend specific tests to monitor and maintain your health.

Why Health Screenings Matter
Many serious health issues—like high blood pressure, diabetes, and cancer—develop silently. Regular screenings allow your provider to identify these concerns early, when they are most treatable. Even if you feel fine, preventive screenings offer peace of mind and ensure minor issues don’t develop into major ones.
Who Should Get Screened?
Most adults over the age of 50 benefit from regular screenings, but your risk factors also matter. You may need screenings earlier or more frequently if you:
- Have a family history of chronic conditions
- Smoke or use tobacco
- Live with a chronic illness.
- Are you managing multiple medications?
- Have noticed new or unexplained symptoms
What to Expect at Your Appointment
During your screening visit, we’ll take time to understand your whole health picture. Screenings may include blood work, a physical examination, and lifestyle discussions. Everything is done in a comfortable and respectful setting, with ample time to ask questions and understand your results, ensuring you feel at ease and respected throughout the process.
