Annual Physicals
Annual physicals and wellness visits in Winter Haven
An annual physical is only useful if there is time to do it properly — full history, examination, review of results, and a plan you actually understand when you leave.
Overview
About this care at Direct Prime Care
Your annual visit is the reset point for the year: what has changed, what the numbers show, what screening is due, and what to work on next. Because appointments are longer here, that conversation is not compressed into the last two minutes.
The visit includes a complete history and physical examination, medication review, vital signs and weight trend, screening review, and discussion of laboratory results where testing was performed.
Forms that often require a visit — school, sports or employment physicals — are handled where they fall within family medicine. Ask the office in advance so the right time is scheduled.
