Physical Exams Q & A

What Constitutes a Physical Exam?

With few set guidelines for the physical examination, our providers begin with a conversation of observation and listening. New patients are encouraged to provide a more extensive history to include not just your personal medical history but that of your family. Your comprehensive history allows our team to gain insight into risk categories and screening tests needed to ensure optimal health. If you are returning to our practice, your records your records will be on hand for reference and updating to ensure everything is current.

The physical part of the physical exam will include:

  • Vital signs
  • Heart exam
  • Lung exam
  • Head and neck exam
  • Abdominal exam

Each exam will likely include a gender specific physical as well.

What Does the Exam for Men Include?

For men, an annual physical will include the basics plus:

  • Testicular exam
  • Hernia exam
  • Penis exam
  • Prostate exam

This allows our providers to screen men for diseases and conditions which affect them, such as prostate enlargement or testicular cancer.
