Preventative Care is Key: End of Year Wellness

Preventive care is a key factor in maintaining your overall health. Annual well visits and health screenings like mammograms and colonoscopies can help you and your provider stay on top of any health issues that may arise before they become serious. They also allow you to develop a good provider-patient relationship and play an important role in helping you stay on the road to good health.

Fauquier Health Northern Virginia Surgical Specialists specializes in lumps, bumps, cysts, and more. If you just recently noticed a suspicious bump or cyst, and want to get it checked out, ask your provider and schedule an appointment with a general surgeon.

The ending of the year is a perfect time to remind yourself to talk with your provider about your yearly wellness check-up. There are only a few weeks left in 2023. From check-ups to screenings to surgeries, Fauquier Health is here to help. Whether you need something as routine as a vaccination, mammogram, or colonoscopy—or you’ve delayed a surgery, like a hernia repair, or knee or hip replacement—now is the time to take care of yourself.  By taking care of these items before the end of the year, you’re not just watching out for your health – you’re also making good use of your insurance benefits.  And if you’ve met your deductible, your out-of-pocket expenses could be minimal, or even zero.
