Preventive Care
Understand your health before problems begin.
Preventive and annual wellness care helps establish a clear picture of your health, identify individual risk factors and determine which screenings may be appropriate. It creates a foundation for informed, long-term care.

Your Annual Visit
What to expect during your appointment.
Each visit is adapted to the patient, but the process generally begins with understanding your current health and determining which preventive priorities deserve attention.
Review your current health
Discuss changes in your health, current concerns, medications, family history and any care you have received since your previous visit.
Complete an appropriate assessment
Your visit may include relevant measurements, a physical assessment and a review of factors that could influence your present or future health.
Discuss screenings and testing
Dr. Evans may recommend appropriate screenings, laboratory testing or follow-up based on your age, history and individual risk factors.
Establish your prevention plan
You will discuss practical next steps, areas to monitor and any appropriate follow-up needed to support your continued care.
When to Schedule
Preventive care is valuable even when you feel well.
Routine visits help maintain continuity and create an opportunity to recognize changes that may not yet be causing noticeable symptoms.
Your routine visit is due
You are due for an annual health review or have not had routine primary care recently.
You are establishing care
You need a primary care physician who can understand your baseline and support your health over time.
Your health has changed
You have noticed changes in your health, energy, weight or other factors that deserve a broader review.
Follow-up is recommended
A previous visit, screening or test identified something that should be monitored or reviewed.
