Types of Appointments
Annual Physical
An annual physical is a complete wellness check that includes vital signs, essential health screenings, and a discussion about your overall health. It helps monitor chronic conditions, update immunizations, and track changes in your well-being over time.
What Happens During an Annual Physical
- Comprehensive Health Assessment: A full review of your physical health, chronic conditions, and potential risk factors.
- Preventive Care: Updates on immunizations, lab testing, and screenings for conditions such as anxiety or depression.
- Health History Discussion: Your provider discusses ongoing concerns, lifestyle habits, and wellness goals.
- Expanded Focus: Includes screenings and tests beyond athletic readiness, emphasizing overall preventive care.
Sports Physical
A sports physical is a focused examination that ensures you are healthy and ready to participate in athletic activities. This appointment includes a review of your medical history, a physical exam, and assessments specific to athletic performance and safety.
What Happens During a Sports Physical
- Physical Exam: Your provider examines the ears, nose, throat, heart, lungs, and abdomen.
- Vitals and Measurements: Height, weight, blood pressure, and pulse are recorded.
- Musculoskeletal Assessment: Strength, flexibility, posture, and joint health are evaluated.
- Vision and Hearing: Tests confirm that your senses are sharp and suitable for sports participation.
- Medical History Review: A detailed review helps identify any existing risks or past injuries.
Key Differences
