Preventative care also includes immunizations as needed, scheduling screenings (like colonoscopies and mammograms), or early interventions when you notice any sudden changes (like a growing lump, new mole, sudden fatigue, or sudden weight loss/gain).
Our goal here at Vanderbilt Wellness, is to use evidence based medicine to ensure you are getting all the care you need. Because we are a direct primary care, you can also ask about some additional service you may want that insurance might deem "medically unnecessary".
