Comprehensive Healthcare Screening Q & A
What is a comprehensive healthcare screening?
A comprehensive healthcare screening is a thorough check-up that examines your overall health, including both body and mind.
At OG Health, Dr. Grenardo uses screenings to catch early signs of illness, track ongoing conditions, and guide your long-term wellness plan. These screenings help prevent severe problems and keep you feeling your best.
What does a comprehensive screening include?
A comprehensive screening examines various aspects of your health. It can include:
- Medical history review
- Blood pressure measurement
- Electrocardiogram (EKG) to check heart health
- Cholesterol and blood sugar level tests
- Hormone level measurements
- Kidney and liver function tests
- Body weight and body mass index (BMI) calculation
- Cancer screenings (like mammograms, Pap smears, colonoscopies)
- Mental health screening for depression and anxiety
These steps help build a clear picture of your health and any risks you face.
Why is a comprehensive healthcare screening necessary?
Many health conditions don’t show symptoms right away. That’s why regular screenings are necessary.
Dr. Grenardo uses them to detect problems early when they’re easiest to treat. Timely detection prevents complications and improves your chances of recovery.
How often should I undergo a comprehensive healthcare screening?
The frequency of comprehensive healthcare screenings depends on your age, family history, and personal health risks.
Dr. Grenardo will work with you to set up a suitable screening schedule. Some people are fine with yearly check-ups, while others need specific tests more frequently.
Are mental and emotional health included in screening?
Dr. Grenardo is a functional medicine practitioner who considers the whole person, not just their symptoms. He believes good health requires attention to physical, mental, and emotional well-being, so he always includes a mental wellness screening.
Screenings usually involve simple questions to check for signs of stress, anxiety, and/or depression. Dr. Grenardo offers support or refers you to a trusted mental health specialist when necessary.
What happens after a comprehensive healthcare screening?
After reviewing your results, Dr. Grenardo will explain their meaning and help you understand the next steps.
If everything looks great, simply continue with regular visits at the intervals Dr. Grenardo recommends. If something needs attention, you work together to create a personalized care plan.
