We asked Dr. Ross why your annual physical matters. Here's what Dr. Ross has to say:
At your annual physical, we discuss and perform some crucial routine screenings you shouldn't skip:
✅Blood Pressure: Detects silent heart damage and stroke risks.
✅Cholesterol Panel: Assesses your risk for cardiovascular disease.
✅Blood Sugar: Catches prediabetes before it turns into diabetes.
✅Routine Cancer Screenings: We discuss and provide prescriptions for age-appropriate screenings such as mammograms and colonoscopies.
Dr. Ross adds that in most cases, your annual physical is no-charge to you! So if you haven't had your annual physical this year, don't hesitate to call Red Bank Family Medicine-Gilbert Street at 732-842-3050.
