SPECIALTY PHYSICALS
annual physicals
An annual physical, also known as a wellness exam, is a routine check-up to assess overall health. During this visit, a healthcare provider reviews your medical history, checks vital signs, performs a physical exam, and may order laboratory tests. Preventive screenings and immunizations are updated as needed. The goal is to detect potential health issues early and promote a healthy lifestyle.
dot physicals
A DOT physical is a medical exam required for commercial drivers to ensure they are fit to operate a vehicle. During this exam, a certified medical examiner reviews the driver's medical history, checks vital signs, and conducts a physical examination. The exam includes vision, hearing, and urine tests to screen for conditions like diabetes or drug use. The goal is to confirm the driver meets the health standards set by the Department of Transportation to perform their job safely
educational, employment, or sports physicals
Educational, employment, or sports physicals are routine exams to ensure an individual's health is suitable for school, work, or athletic participation. During these exams, a healthcare provider reviews the person's medical history, checks vital signs, and conducts a physical examination. The goal is to identify any health issues that might affect their performance or safety in school, work, or sports, and to ensure they meet any necessary health requirements
management of chronic conditions
Management of chronic conditions involves regular medical care to control long-term health issues such as diabetes, hypertension, or asthma. A healthcare provider monitors the condition, adjusts treatment plans, and provides ongoing support and education. This includes regular check-ups, medication management, lifestyle recommendations, and preventive measures to manage symptoms and prevent complications, aiming to improve the patient's quality of life
procedures
trigger point injections
Trigger point injections are a medical treatment used to relieve pain and discomfort in specific areas of muscle, known as trigger points. These are tight, painful knots of muscle that can cause pain in other parts of the body. During the procedure, a healthcare provider inserts a small needle into the trigger point and injects a local anesthetic, saline, or sometimes a corticosteroid. This injection helps to relax the muscle, relieve pain, and improve mobility. Trigger point injections are often used for conditions like myofascial pain syndrome, tension headaches, and fibromyalgia
skin tag removal
Skin tag removal involves a quick, minimally invasive procedure designed to address benign skin tags that may cause discomfort or aesthetic concerns. Typically performed under local anesthesia, the procedure can be carried out using cryotherapy (freezing with liquid nitrogen), electrosurgery (using electric current to cauterize), or excision (surgical removal with a scalpel). After the removal, the area is cleaned and bandaged, with post-procedure care instructions provided to ensure proper healing and minimize complications. Most patients experience minimal discomfort and a swift recovery, with a low risk of recurrence.
orthopedic joint injections
Orthopedic joint injections are medical treatments used to relieve pain and inflammation in the joints. During this procedure, a healthcare provider injects medication directly into the affected joint. The injected substance can be a corticosteroid to reduce inflammation, hyaluronic acid to lubricate the joint, or other drugs to alleviate pain. These injections are commonly used for conditions like arthritis, bursitis, and tendinitis. Orthopedic joint injections aim to improve joint function, reduce pain, and enhance the patient's quality of life.
cyst excision
Cyst excision is a minor surgical procedure used to remove a cyst, which is a sac filled with fluid or semi-solid material. Under local anesthesia, the area around the cyst is numbed, and a small incision is made to carefully excise the cyst along with its capsule to prevent recurrence. The wound is then cleaned, and sutures or adhesive strips may be applied to close the incision. Post-procedure care involves keeping the area clean and dry, monitoring for signs of infection, and following up to ensure proper healing. The procedure is typically straightforward, with minimal discomfort and a low risk of complications.
excisional skin biopsy
An excisional skin biopsy is a medical procedure where a healthcare provider removes an entire lump or an area of abnormal skin, including a margin of normal skin, for diagnostic purposes. This type of biopsy is typically performed when a larger or deeper skin lesion needs to be evaluated, such as a suspicious mole, skin growth, or lesion that could be cancerous. After numbing the area with a local anesthetic, the provider uses a scalpel to excise the tissue. The removed tissue is then sent to a laboratory for histological examination to determine the presence of any disease, such as skin cancer. This procedure helps in diagnosing and guiding the treatment plan for various skin conditions.
alternative medicine consultation
An alternative medicine consultation involves a comprehensive evaluation of the patient's health and wellness through non-traditional approaches. During the consultation, the practitioner gathers detailed information about the patient's medical history, lifestyle, and symptoms to develop a personalized treatment plan. This may include recommendations for dietary changes, herbal supplements, acupuncture, or other holistic therapies aimed at enhancing overall well-being and addressing underlying issues. The focus is on integrative care, combining alternative methods with conventional treatments as needed, while emphasizing patient education and self-care strategies to support long-term health and balance.
laceration repairs
Laceration repairs are medical procedures to treat cuts or tears in the skin. These repairs are performed to close the wound, promote healing, reduce the risk of infection, and minimize scarring. Depending on the severity and location of the laceration, different methods may be used, including sutures (stitches), staples, adhesive strips, or skin glue. The procedure involves cleaning the wound, administering a local anesthetic to numb the area, and then closing the wound using the chosen method. Proper laceration repair helps ensure the wound heals correctly and reduces the likelihood of complications.
