Annual physicals are important for everyone. Physicals for women are often called well-woman visits, while physicals for children are referred to as well-baby visits. Physicals are for people of all ages because their sole focus is early detection and prevention of diseases and other conditions. The doctor performing our physical should specialize in family practice or primary care. The doctor is interested in all aspects of your life that relate to your health and qualified to examine, diagnose, evaluate, and treat the entire human body. The doctor may manage other diseases and conditions for you and studies your medical history, making them the most knowledgeable provider when it comes to your wellness and health needs.
