At AED urgent care clinic, we are dedicated to providing comprehensive healthcare services, including wellness physicals, to help our patients proactively manage their health and prevent potential medical issues. Our wellness physicals are designed to assess and optimize your overall well-being by evaluating various aspects of your physical health.
When you come in for a wellness physical, our experienced and caring healthcare professionals will take the time to understand your medical history, lifestyle choices, and any specific concerns you may have. This information allows us to tailor the physical examination to your individual needs, ensuring a thorough and personalized assessment.
During the physical examination, our healthcare team will conduct a series of tests and evaluations to gauge your overall health. These may include:
Vital signs assessment: We will measure your blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, and body temperature to establish a baseline for your health.
Physical examination: We will conduct a head-to-toe examination, checking your eyes, ears, nose, throat, heart, lungs, abdomen, skin, and other relevant areas. This examination helps detect any potential abnormalities or signs of underlying health conditions.
Laboratory tests: We may collect blood and urine samples for comprehensive lab testing. These tests can assess your cholesterol levels, blood glucose, kidney and liver function, thyroid function, and other essential markers of your health.
Vaccination review: We will review your immunization records to ensure you are up to date on recommended vaccines. If necessary, we can administer vaccinations during the wellness physical.
Health screenings: Depending on your age, gender, and personal and family medical history, we may recommend specific health screenings such as mammograms, Pap smears, prostate exams, or colorectal screenings. These screenings aim to detect any signs of cancer or other conditions at their earliest stages.
Lifestyle counseling: Our healthcare professionals will provide guidance and education on healthy lifestyle choices, including exercise, nutrition, stress management, and smoking cessation, to promote overall well-being and prevent future health problems.
At the end of your wellness physical, we will discuss the findings with you and address any concerns or questions you may have. If necessary, we may recommend further diagnostic tests or refer you to a specialist for specialized care.
By undergoing regular wellness physicals, you can take an active role in managing your health and catching potential issues early on. Our urgent care clinic is committed to providing compassionate, high-quality healthcare, and our wellness physicals are an essential part of that commitment. Schedule your wellness physical with us today and take a proactive step toward a healthier future.

Receiving a COVID-19 vaccine is the most effective and safest measure to prevent severe illness. Similar to other vaccines, the COVID-19 vaccine instructs your body on building its own defense against the virus responsible for this disease. Typically, the COVID-19 vaccine consists of two doses, with the second dose administered 14 to 28 days after the initial one. It takes approximately three weeks after the final dose to develop immunity. Access to COVID-19 vaccination is subject to availability and regulations set by your state. Please reach out to us for further information on obtaining a COVID-19 vaccine.
