Preventive Health Screenings in St. George, Utah
Talk through which screenings may be appropriate for your age, history and risk factors.
Screenings chosen for you, not a checklist
Screenings look for possible health concerns before symptoms appear. Which ones make sense depends on your age, personal and family history, and other factors.
Your provider can help you understand the purpose of a screening, what the results could mean, and which options may fit your situation. Some screenings are done in the clinic; others may involve a referral elsewhere.
What a screening visit may include
Depending on your history and previous testing, the visit may include:
- Review of previous screening records
- Individual risk factor discussion
- Age-appropriate screening recommendations
- Preparation guidance
- Referral planning when a screening is done elsewhere
- Screening result reviews
Questions worth asking
- Which screenings may be due for me?
- Why is this screening recommended?
- Does my family history change anything?
- Where would this screening take place?
- How will I hear about results?
Before your visit
If available, bring dates and results of past screenings, and any family health history you know. This helps avoid repeating something you have already had.
Many screening conversations happen during an annual physical.
Before you call
No single screening schedule is right for everyone, and not every screening is needed at every visit. Your provider will discuss options based on your needs.
