When was your last doctor’s visit?
It's important to know about your health condition. We at our Century Medical, PC believe in the saying “Prevention is better than cure”. Even during a pandemic, get your regular checkups done. Regular checkups incorporate several tests, including preventative screening and physical examination to check your current health and risks. If any problems are found, your doctor will make a treatment plan and you can prevent health problems in the future.
Tests undertaken for the prevention of diseases are important in preventive health care. Blood pressure screening, cholesterol screening, Pap smears, birth control counseling, depression screening, allergy testing, immunization, assessing risk factors, exercise and diet counseling and so much more! Annual physical exam detects serious health conditions, establishes a baseline for health goals, and reduces healthcare costs.
Keep a track of your health and maintain a healthy life!
Lots of people go for a checkup when they feel any change in their health or any visible symptoms. But doctor appointments are not only for when someone is sick, it is important to get annual physicals. Physical exams are important because they give you an update on your health and this will let you know what you need to take care of. We at our Century Medical, PC in Peabody encourage you to make an appointment with your primary care physician to get an annual physical exam.
Men and women of all ages can benefit from annual physical exams, but they’re especially beneficial to patients who:
Are aging
Are high risk for certain diseases
Already have a chronic condition that needs managing
Our highly-skilled, board-certified doctors and licensed professionals deliver compassionate and comprehensive patient care with the philosophy of getting to know the patient as a whole. We are open for safe and secure health checkups. For more information please call Century Medical at (978) 594-8980 or contact us online.
