Adult Wellness Visit

Overview

A yearly visit for adults to review overall health, medications, preventive screenings, and goals for the coming year. Virtual wellness visits focus on history, risk review, screening recommendations, and referrals or lab orders where appropriate. A hands-on physical examination, immunizations, and some screenings must be completed in person.

Common reasons for a wellness visit

• You are due for a yearly wellness check
• You want to review preventive screenings or lab work
• You need help coordinating care for an ongoing condition
• You have questions about medications or healthy lifestyle changes

When virtual care may be appropriate

• You are due for a routine wellness review and have no new or urgent symptoms
• You are located in Illinois at the time of the visit
• You can share recent vital signs, lab results, or records if you have them

How the virtual visit works

• Book a virtual visit through our secure scheduling system.
• Join a secure video visit with a licensed healthcare provider at your appointment time.
• Your provider reviews your health history and discusses your concerns.
• You receive an individualized care plan, with follow-up arranged if needed.

What your provider may evaluate

• Your symptoms, how long you have had them, and what you have tried
• Your personal and family medical history
• Current medications, supplements, and allergies
• Factors that may be contributing to your concern
• Your health history, medications, allergies, and family history
• Recommended screenings for your age and risk factors
• Any lab work or vital signs you can share from home or a recent visit

Possible treatment options

Treatment options may include prescription or nonprescription therapies when clinically appropriate. Your provider will determine whether a treatment is safe and appropriate after reviewing your health history and completing a clinical evaluation. Prescriptions are never guaranteed.

Options may include preventive guidance, screening referrals or lab orders, and medication adjustments when clinically appropriate. Care is individualized, and prescriptions are never guaranteed.

When laboratory testing or in-person care may be needed

Some concerns may require laboratory testing, imaging, an in-person examination, or referral to a specialist. Your provider will advise you if your situation is not appropriate for virtual care.

Laboratory testing, immunizations, a hands-on physical exam, and some screenings cannot be completed by video. Your provider will advise when an in-person or mobile visit is needed.

When to seek urgent or emergency care

First Priority Clinic does not provide emergency medical services. If you experience a medical emergency — such as difficulty breathing, chest pain, severe bleeding, confusion, or signs of a stroke — call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department.
