A proactive approach to your long-term health
Annual wellness visits help adults and seniors take a more proactive approach to their care. At PrimaryCareIM, your provider reviews your medical history, current medications, individual risk factors, and recommended preventive screenings, then works with you to build a personalized long-term care plan. It's a calm, unhurried conversation focused on keeping you well — not just treating problems after they appear.
What it is
What is an annual wellness visit?
An annual wellness visit is a preventive appointment designed to look at your health as a whole. Instead of focusing on a single symptom, your provider takes time to understand your overall wellbeing, current risk factors, medications, and recommended screenings, then puts together a prevention plan tailored to you.
- A preventive, whole-person visit, not a sick visit
- Focused on risk factors, medications, and screenings
- Includes a personalized prevention and care plan
- Ideal for adults and seniors who want to catch issues earlier
