What are Wellness Exams?
Wellness exams, also known as annual physicals or check-ups, are routine visits with a healthcare provider to assess your overall health and address any concerns or potential health risks. These exams typically include a review of your medical history, a physical exam, and preventive screenings based on your age, gender, and medical history.
