Appointment preparation
Before booking health screenings
You can make your visit go smoothly by jotting down the main reason you're coming in, your current medications, allergies, pharmacy, insurance plan, recent records, and any questions on your mind. If your visit follows recent urgent care, a hospital stay, specialist care, labs, imaging, or a medication change, bring those details along if you have them.
If you're traveling in from Prescott Valley, Chino Valley, Dewey-Humboldt, or another nearby Yavapai County community, it helps to double-check directions, office hours, insurance details, and any forms before you head out.

Common questions
Common Questions About Health Screenings
What screenings can be discussed at First Choice Medical Center?
Screening conversations may include blood pressure, diabetes risk, cholesterol, bone health, cancer-screening timing, medication history, and other preventive topics depending on your age, records, symptoms, and risk factors. The exact plan depends on clinician review.
Does a health screening visit automatically include lab work?
No. Labs or other tests may be discussed when clinically appropriate, but they are not automatically included for every patient. Bring prior records and medication details so the clinician can decide what makes sense for your situation.
Is this the same as an annual wellness visit?
It can overlap. Annual wellness visits focus on prevention and planning, while a health screening conversation may focus on specific risks, records, or follow-up questions. Our team can help you choose the right appointment type.
Should new symptoms wait for a screening visit?
No. If you have new or worsening symptoms, call the clinic so we can help you choose the right visit type. For emergency symptoms, call 911.
