Your health is your most valuable asset, and regular checkups are crucial to maintaining it. At our medical practice, Dr. John Abroon, our board-certified internist and primary care physician, is dedicated to ensuring you stay in the best possible health. One of the most effective ways to do this is by scheduling your Annual Wellness Checkup. This comprehensive examination allows Dr. Abroon to assess your overall health, catch potential issues early and provide personalized recommendations for your well-being.
What to Expect During Your Wellness Checkup
During your annual wellness checkup, Dr. Abroon will conduct a thorough evaluation of your health. This includes a review of your medical history, a physical examination and a discussion about any health concerns you may have. To ensure a comprehensive assessment, Dr. Abroon also offers several diagnostic services right here at our practice. Here is a quick overview of the services available:
1-Chest X-Ray
A Chest X-ray is an essential diagnostic tool that helps Dr. Abroon evaluate your lungs, heart and chest wall. This quick and painless test can detect conditions such as pneumonia, lung cancer and heart problems. Regular chest X-rays can be a vital part of your health routine, especially if you have a history of respiratory issues or are a smoker.
2-Hearing Tests
Hearing loss is more common than many people realize, especially as we age. Dr. Abroon offers comprehensive hearing tests to assess your auditory health. Early detection of hearing loss can significantly improve your quality of life, allowing for timely intervention and treatment options, such as hearing aids or other therapies.
3-Lung Inflammation Assessment
Lung inflammation can be indicative of various conditions, including asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and infections. Dr. Abroon uses advanced techniques to assess lung inflammation, helping to diagnose and manage conditions that may affect your breathing and overall lung health.
4-Non-Invasive Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) Testing
PAD is a condition where the arteries in your legs become narrowed, reducing blood flow and increasing your risk of heart attack or stroke. Dr. Abroon offers non-invasive PAD testing, which uses ultrasound technology to detect this condition early. Early detection is key to managing PAD and preventing complications.
5-Pulmonary Function Testing
Pulmonary Function Testing measures how well your lungs are working. This test is particularly useful for diagnosing and monitoring lung diseases like asthma and COPD. Dr. Abroon may recommend this test if you have symptoms such as shortness of breath, chronic cough or if you are a habitual smoker.
6-Same-Day CAT Scans, Ultrasounds & Other Imaging
We understand the importance of timely diagnostics, which is why we offer same-day CAT Scans, ultrasounds and other imaging services. These advanced imaging techniques help Dr. Abroon diagnose a wide range of conditions, from internal injuries to infections, ensuring you receive the care you need without unnecessary delays.
7-Sexually Transmitted Diseases Testing
Your sexual health is an important part of your overall well-being. Dr. Abroon provides discreet and comprehensive testing for sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Early detection and treatment of STDs are crucial for your health and the health of your partners.
