Adorn Medical Services with Family Medicine Provider Elizabeth Vebangsi has years of experience providing physicals in Washington, DC, and is ready to work with you! If you’re not sure you need a physical here are a few reasons why getting one every year is a smart choice.

Spot Potential Diseases Early

 When you go to a physical, your doctor is going to ask you a lot of questions: have you been sick or fatigued lately; how often do you exercise; do you take any drugs? They do this not because they’re nosey, but because they want to spot potential diseases or conditions before they worsen and manage them effectively for you.

Identify Long-Term Concerns Sooner

 The biggest benefit of a physical is spotting issues early and managing them quickly. Some problems are long-term and may sneak up on you unexpectedly. By working with us through a yearly physical, you can catch issues like:

• Heart and lung disease
• Slow reflexes or muscle weakness
• Depression 
• Enlarged organs
• Throat infections
• Cancer growths — rare, but a physical may spot them before they worsen

Get Immunized to Stay Safe

 Our team at Adorn Medical Services will use physicals in Washington, DC, as a chance to check up on your vaccinations and provide you or get you scheduled for any you may need. 

Maintain Your Diet and Exercise Routine 

 It’s easy to slip up in your health routines…slipping into eating junk food, struggling to stay on your fitness routine, not getting enough sleep, etc. Thankfully, a good physical can help you gauge your health changes from the last year and make it easier for you to improve your health for good.

Build Strong Relationships with Your PCP

 Spending time with your primary care physician (PCP) is a big part of your healthcare routine. Building relationships through an annual physical can avoid confusion in care. Just as importantly, it can keep you focused on your health, a benefit you simply can’t ignore as you age.
