Your Health, Our Priority

Routine checkups are the foundation of good health
How often should I have a routine checkup?
For adults in good health, annual checkups are recommended. However, the frequency may vary based on your age, medical history, and risk factors. Patients with chronic conditions or those over 50 may benefit from more frequent visits. Your provider will recommend a schedule tailored to your individual needs.
A routine checkup typically includes a review of your medical history, vital signs measurement (blood pressure, heart rate, temperature), physical examination, and discussion of any health concerns. Depending on your age and health status, your provider may also order preventive screenings or lab work.
Most insurance plans, including Medicare and Medicaid, cover annual preventive visits at no cost to you. This includes the checkup itself and standard preventive screenings. We recommend verifying your specific coverage with your insurance provider before your appointment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to fast before my routine checkup?

A typical routine checkup takes about 30-45 minutes. This includes time for reviewing your history, the physical examination, and discussing any questions or concerns you may have. If additional screenings or procedures are needed, the appointment may take longer.
Yes! Even if you feel healthy, routine checkups are important for establishing baseline health metrics, identifying silent conditions like high blood pressure or elevated cholesterol, and receiving preventive care recommendations. Many health conditions develop without obvious symptoms.
Most insurance plans, including Medicare, cover annual preventive visits at no cost to the patient. However, if additional tests or procedures are performed during your visit that go beyond standard preventive care, there may be associated costs. We recommend checking with your insurance provider for specific coverage details.
Some point-of-care tests can provide immediate results during your visit. However, most lab work is sent to our partner laboratory and results are typically available within 1-3 business days. Your provider will contact you to discuss results and any necessary follow-up actions.


Routine checkups are recommended for all ages, starting from infancy. For adults, annual checkups become increasingly important as you age, particularly after 40 when the risk for many health conditions increases. Your provider can recommend the optimal checkup frequency based on your individual health profile.
