Physicals
Physicals done at NCFMG are wellness exams. Our providers perform preventative exams to find new concerns rather than treating existing problems. A physical will be different for each person depending on his or her age, gender, and family history. For women 18-25 years of age in relatively good health, only a gynecological exam may be needed on an annual basis. Patients are encouraged to make a separate appointment to address specific medical concerns because doing so during a wellness visit may incur additional charges that your insurance may or may not cover. For more information about insurance coverage for physicals, please go to our Insurance Information page.
Things to Bring
- Insurance card(s) to each visit
- Interval History Form
- Method of payment (cash, check, Mastercard and Visa accepted)
- All current medications (over the counter and prescribed)
- Questions for your provider
- Any records or documentation from previous medical care
Screening Tests
To help assess your health status, your doctor or physician assistant my order routine screening tests that are not associated with any signs, symptoms or complaints you may have. These tests are performed by outside facilities as determined by your insurance whose billing practices differ from ours. It is strongly recommended you contact your insurance company to determine your routine screening benefit coverage.
