What happens during physical exams?
During a physical exam at Carmichael Medical Clinic, a compassionate provider greets you and may complete the following:
Initial evaluation
Your specialist checks your blood pressure, pulse, and other vital signs. They also weigh you and determine your body mass index (BMI).
Physical exam
Your family medicine provider completes a physical exam by assessing your eyes, throat, ears, reflexes, breathing, heartbeat, and more. Carmichael Medical Clinic offers pelvic exams and Pap tests for women if needed and prostate exams for men.
Diagnostic tests
You might need vision and hearing screenings, blood testing, urine tests, or other diagnostic procedures to detect or rule out potential medical problems or injuries.
Immunizations
Carmichael Medical Clinic offers immunizations if you desire them or need them during an immigration, DOT, work, school, or sports physical exam.
Treatments
If you require treatment for an injury, illness, or chronic disease, the Carmichael Medical Clinic specialists are here for you. You might need injury care, medication prescriptions, pain management, or other primary care solutions.
Afterward, the Carmichael Medical Clinic team fills out any required physical exam paperwork and gives you a copy for your records. If you need care from another specialist, the Carmichael Medical Clinic providers refer you.
Carmichael Medical Clinic also provides Botox® and other aesthetic injections for those with cosmetic concerns.
