The answer to this question varies, as it depends on many factors, such as your age, health history, and family history. However, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends that women have a yearly well-woman visit with their primary care provider. This visit is an opportunity to discuss any concerns you may have about your health and to receive preventive screenings, such as a Pap test for cervical cancer. Your Epic Medical physician may also recommend more frequent visits if you have certain risk factors for certain conditions, such as breast cancer.
Similar to women, the answer to this question depends on many factors. However, the American Urological Association recommends that men have a yearly check-up with their physician starting at age 40. This visit is an opportunity to discuss any concerns you may have about your health and to receive preventive screenings, such as a blood test for prostate cancer. Your physician may also recommend more frequent visits if you have certain risk factors for certain conditions.
Your Epic Medical family doctor is often the best place to start when you have a health concern. They can provide a diagnosis and treatment for many common conditions. Then, if you have an injury or illness that requires specialized care, your family physician will refer you to a specialist.
