We all know that being proactive about your health and wellness is the key to living a long, healthy life. That said, it can be difficult to know where to start or what steps you need to take in order for you and your family members to reap the benefits of better health. In this blog post we will share with you our top 3 ways that will help get you started on the path towards being more active and healthier today!

People often wait until it’s too late to see a doctor, not realizing that the signs of their illness may have been clear to a physician several years in advance. Be it preventative screenings for cancer, diabetes, or maintenance for an already under control health condition, it never hurts to be on top your health. You may have heard the phrase, “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” What does this mean? It means that if you take proactive steps to protect your health and wellness now, it will save your time and money in the long run.

At AlphaMed we are committed to getting you back to life. Let us help you on your journey through health and wellness. AlphaMed is able to provide multiple healthcare services tailored to your needs. Let’s break it down.

Walk-in Health Services

Your body, much like a car, requires long term maintenance. And like a good car owner who knows that even if their car seems to be working well, regular tune-ups can help identify and prevent future, costlier, repairs. In the same way, the best investment you can make for your body is to regularly maintain it. It’s helpful to think of a physical like a tune-up for your body. There’s nothing wrong with you right now, so let’s keep it that way.

Physicals are not the only way to stay proactive. It’s never been easier to schedule a walk-in appointment at AlphaMed, and we have a range of different services to meet your needs.

Physicals: Whether it’s following up on or diagnosing an injury, or simply checking in on your own health, we have in clinic physicians who understand that your health doesn’t always follow a rigid appointment schedule.
X-Rays: When’s the last time you marked out the best time to fracture your hip on your calendar? Probably never.
Lab Tests: It’s not helpful to find out if you had a flu two weeks later, you want to know now. That’s fair. We get it, and we’ve got you. You don’t have to sit pretty on those hemorrhoids, or wheeze through the next week, walk-in and walk out then get on with your day.

Sports Medicine

Sports medicine is designed to ensure that your child is not only healthy, but also that they’re healthy enough to perform at their peak, whether that’s scoring a goal or boots on the ground cookie sales.

We have your kid’s health covered, and can will help you make sure they’re as healthy as can be for summer camp!

We don’t take it personally if that best experience is done at home. You can schedule a telemed appointment with us today.
