A preventive medicine evaluation is thorough. The physician will assess your personal and family medical history, lifestyle factors (diet, exercise, sleep, stress), current health metrics (blood pressure, cholesterol, glucose), and relevant screening test results. They create a personalized prevention plan that addresses your highest-priority risks. Workplace evaluations include exposure assessments and fitness-for-duty testing specific to your job requirements.
See a preventive medicine physician for comprehensive health risk assessments, executive health evaluations, travel medicine consultations, occupational health evaluations (workplace exposures, fitness-for-duty exams), vaccine recommendations, and personalized prevention plans based on your family history and risk factors. Some preventive medicine doctors also serve as primary care physicians with a prevention focus.
