Most people wait until they get sick before they go and see a doctor. This usually leads to costly and unwanted medical bills, hospitalizations, and surgeries. But there's a way to prevent most of this from happening — preventive medical services.
Preventive medical services help in the early detection of diseases, so they can be treated and prevented from worsening. Examples of preventive care services are immunizations, flu shots, annual physicals, screenings, and patient counseling.
Preventive medical services also benefit a person by:
- Improving Quality of Life. Since you are getting sick less, that means you can focus on your goals and enjoy your daily activities more.
- Reducing The Occurrence of Symptoms. Preventive care makes it easier to manage symptoms since they are in the earlier stage of a medical condition.
- Making You More Susceptible to Treatments. Early detection means early treatment. Preventive care also helps your doctor provide a more effective approach to your health.
- Helping Maintain Your Efficiency and Productivity. Getting sick usually means time off from work, which leads to lesser income. Preventive medical services help you develop healthy habits that improve your efficiency and productivity.
- Reducing Costly Medical Expenses. Hospitalization care is expensive. But preventive care helps reduce these expenses by catching diseases while they are still treatable.
Due to the pandemic, most people might have postponed getting preventive medical care. But at Phoenix Medical Centers, we have implemented protective measures to ensure your safety in our clinic.
