Annual PhysicalsA "preventative care" physician visit during which standard health tests are performed, depending on gender and age. Tests may include things such as blood pressure, a breast and/or pelvic exam, prostate exam, cholesterol screening, vaccines or booster shots. Anticoagulation and Coumadin ManagementCoumadin is an anticoagulation (blood thinning) medicine. It is used to prevent the formation of blood clots or to treat blood clots. Blood TestsBlood tests can reveal numerous diseases and conditions. Bone Density Testing (DEXA Scan)A bone density test, or DEXA Scan, is a noninvasive, evaluation procedure that uses x-rays to measure bone mass or the weight of the skeleton. The amount of bone in the skeleton determines how strong it is. Bone densitometry is often used to measure bone mass in the spine, hips and arms, as these are the areas most likely to fracture when bone mass is low. Contraceptive ManagementProvides information regarding the various forms of contraception and can assist in determining which method is best for you. Department of Transportation (DOT) Exams/PhysicalsMedical examinations for individuals who drive commercial motor vehicles.

Electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG)An electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) is one of the simplest and fastest procedures used to evaluate the heart. Electrodes (small, plastic patches) are placed at certain locations on the chest, arms and legs. When the electrodes are connected to an ECG machine by lead wires, the electrical activity of the heart is measured, interpreted and printed out for the physician's information and further interpretation.

Geriatric CareAddresses the complex needs of older people, focusing on health promotion and the prevention and treatment of disease and disability in the elderly. Gynecological Care and ExamsThe medical specialty dealing with health of the female reproductive system. Holter MonitoringThe Holter monitor is a portable device for continuously monitoring the electrical activity of the heart for 24 hours or more. Its extended recording period is sometimes useful for observing occasional cardiac arrhythmias that would be difficult to identify in a shorter period of time. Injection TherapyInjection therapy involves using a needle and syringe to relieve pain by injecting medication into a patient's joints, soft tissues or other areas. It typically is used only when less invasive forms of treatment fail to relieve symptoms. Minor Surgical ProceduresMinor surgical procedures are those that can be done in the physician's office with local anesthesia.

Pulmonary Function TestA test designed to measure how well the lungs are working. Pulmonary function tests (PFTs) gauge how the lungs are carrying out their tasks -- of expanding and contracting (when a person inhales and exhales) and of exchanging oxygen and carbon dioxide efficiently between the air (or other gases) within the lungs and the blood.
