Living in the mountains is hard. Make an easy call to schedule an annual wellness visit and prevention screenings.
 

Wellness Visit

A wellness visit is a regular appointment with your primary care provider to create or update a personalized prevention plan. This head-to-toe physical may help prevent illness based on your current health and risk factors.
