Today, people are preemptively seeking medical advice on how to live a healthy lifestyle. They are looking to lower their risk of various conditions or diseases by maintaining a healthy diet, weight, and level of physical activity. Thus, doctors request for a regular health check- ups to help stay on top of their health but a lot of the testing now is done routinely and has not been found to be cost effective and, in some cases, causes unnecessary additional testing and anxiety.
This month's session will highlight the importance of availing the essential components of a periodic health exam. This will emphasize that the frequency of the periodic health exam will not entirely ensure one's health, it is rather the quality and relevance of the test which is more valuable and one should aim for.
