Annual Physical Exam

An Annual Physical Exam at Torrance Premier Health provides a comprehensive evaluation of a patient’s overall health to promote wellness and identify any underlying health concerns. The exam typically includes a review of medical history, assessment of vital signs (such as blood pressure, heart rate, and temperature), and measurements of weight, height, and Body Mass Index (BMI). In addition, the physical exam may involve a basic vision and hearing test, as well as a thorough examination of various body systems, including the cardiovascular, respiratory, and musculoskeletal systems. Patients are encouraged to discuss any ongoing symptoms, lifestyle habits, and family history of diseases, enabling doctors to tailor their advice and provide preventive measures for issues such as heart disease, diabetes, or hypertension. Additional screenings, such as blood tests or cancer screenings, can be ordered based on individual risk factors and age. The Annual Physical Exam is an essential part of maintaining long-term health, as it can detect health conditions early, allowing for timely intervention and treatment.
