An annual preventative exam includes a thorough physical exam and screening for age-specific conditions, including cancers.  It is not necessary for you to fast for this appointment.  In fact, it is often advantageous to determine what labs should be checked during the appointment, and these may be done at a later time.  Other tests may be recommended, such as a mammogram, EKG, Endoscopy, colonoscopy, etc, based on your age, personal and family medical history.

Because this is considered a preventative visit, insurance will not pay for other issues to be addressed.  This includes chronic conditions like menopause, hypertension, Diabetes, allergies, etc.  Likewise, acute problems like colds and bladder infections are also not covered during that visit.  Please plan on addressing these types of concerns at an appointment on a different day if you want your insurance to cover them, or look at virtual visit.

A complete physical (annual preventative exam) is recommended for nearly everyone, but especially for infants and those aged 40 on up.  Girls/women, they should have an annual pelvic exam and a pap smear.  If a woman aged 30 or more is found to not have Human PapillomaVirus (HPV) infection and has a normal pap, then she may safely wait 3 years until her next pap smear if she has no new sexual partners.We strongly recommend not to have any sexual partners, or new partners and follow religious teachings and not these criminal racist.
