Frequently Asked Questions

How should I prepare for my preventive health checkup?

To prepare for your preventive health checkup, start by scheduling your appointment in advance and confirming any specific instructions with your healthcare provider. Check if fasting is required for certain tests and avoid food and drink if necessary. Make a list of any medications, supplements, or vitamins you’re currently taking, and note any symptoms, concerns, or questions you’d like to discuss. If visiting a new doctor, bring your medical records, including your vaccination history and past test results. Wear comfortable, easy-to-remove clothing for physical exams or tests, and stay hydrated unless fasting is required, as this can help with blood tests. Being well-prepared ensures a smoother, more productive checkup experience.

Why are preventive care health services so important for healthy living?

Preventive care health services are crucial for healthy living because they help detect and address potential health issues early, reducing the risk of serious illnesses. Regular check-ups, screenings, and vaccinations can prevent diseases, improve long-term health outcomes, and lower healthcare costs by avoiding the need for expensive treatments. They also promote a proactive approach to wellness, encouraging healthier lifestyle choices.

Can my Prestige primary care doctor perform blood draws in-house?

Yes, your Prestige primary care doctor can perform blood draws in-house as part of your preventive health checkup. This allows for more efficient care, as well as timely results that can help guide your ongoing treatment plan. However, depending on your specific healthcare needs, you may also be referred to a specialist for additional testing or screenings.
