Annual Wellness Exam

The Annual Wellness Exam is your yearly opportunity to step back and look at your health as a whole, not just one concern at a time. Instead of rushing through a quick physical, we use this visit to review where you have been over the past year, what has changed, and how to lower your risks going forward.

During your exam, we will:
- Review your medical history, family history, and any new diagnoses.
- Talk through changes in weight, energy, mood, sleep, mobility, and daily function.
- Assess your current medications and supplements for safety and ongoing need.
- Identify which age- and risk-appropriate screenings or vaccines are due.
- Discuss prevention strategies, including anti-inflammatory eating, movement, and stress management.

Depending on your needs, we may order labs or imaging, suggest a focused Medication Review or Lab Review visit, or recommend referrals to specialists. As an adult/gerontology nurse practitioner, Dani also pays close attention to fall risk, cognition, and independence for older adults, making this visit especially valuable for those wanting to age as safely and comfortably as possible.

Annual Wellness Exams can be conducted via telehealth for many adults, with in-home options available in select areas when an in-person exam adds value. After your visit, you receive a clear, prioritized plan outlining what to do now, what to watch over time, and when to check in again.

Rather than a box to check for insurance or paperwork, we view the annual exam as a reset point-a time to realign your care with your current goals and ensure that your medications, lifestyle, and screenings are all working together to support your long-term health.
