Are Annual Doctor Check-Ups Really Necessary?
Absolutely! Here’s why:
Proactive Health Monitoring
Don’t make the mistake of believing that annual check-ups are only for when you’re feeling unwell. They ensure your continued good health by reinforcing healthy habits and identifying areas for improvement.
Early Detection of Health Issues
Regular check-ups enable you to catch potential problems before they become serious, like high blood pressure or early signs of diseases.
Peace of Mind
Knowing you’re proactively managing your health can reduce anxiety and give you confidence about your well-being.
Healthcare, From Head to Toe
Annual wellness exams are more than just routine check-ups; they’re preventive primary care services that enable your physician to stay up-to-date on your health and identify early indicators of chronic diseases. During these visits, our board-certified physicians conduct a thorough assessment of your health to offer personalized care tailored to your unique needs.
Body Mass Index (BMI) Evaluations
We assess your BMI to help you understand your weight status and any potential health risks associated with it.
Blood Pressure and Pulse Checks
Regular monitoring of your blood pressure and pulse is essential for detecting hypertension and other cardiovascular issues.
Lung Function Evaluations
We evaluate your lung function to ensure your respiratory system is working properly, especially if you have a history of breathing issues.
Laboratory Testing
Blood and urine tests provide critical insights into your overall health by identifying any underlying issues that may not be immediately apparent.
Head-to-Toe Physical Evaluations
A comprehensive wellness exam enables us to catch any potential health concerns early on, and ensures that you stay in optimal health.
Life-Saving Screenings
Depending on your age and medical history, we may recommend screenings for conditions like cancer, diabetes, and heart disease to catch any issues early.
Vaccinations
Stay up-to-date with essential vaccinations (such as the flu shot) during your wellness visit to protect against preventable diseases.
Sports Physicals
Required by schools, teams, or camps, sports physicals ensure that students and athletes are healthy and fit for participation in sports, helping to prevent injuries.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in a wellness exam at Modera Clinic?
A wellness exam at Modera Clinic includes a comprehensive physical examination, blood pressure check, cholesterol and blood glucose screening, body composition analysis, immunization review, and a personalized health assessment. Our board-certified physicians review your medical history, discuss lifestyle factors, and create a preventive care plan tailored to your health goals. Wellness exams are available at our Frisco, Prosper, and Little Elm locations.
How often should I get a wellness exam?
Adults should get a wellness exam at least once a year. Annual wellness exams allow your doctor to detect potential health issues early, update vaccinations, monitor chronic conditions, and adjust your preventive care plan. If you have existing health conditions like diabetes or hypertension, your physician may recommend more frequent visits. Modera Clinic offers same-day appointments to make scheduling convenient.
Does Modera Clinic offer sports physicals?
Yes, Modera Clinic provides sports physicals for athletes of all ages at our Frisco, Prosper, and Little Elm locations. Sports physicals include a physical examination, cardiovascular screening, musculoskeletal assessment, and medical clearance for participation in school, recreational, and competitive sports programs. Call or text your nearest location to schedule.
Does insurance cover wellness exams at Modera Clinic?
Yes, most major insurance plans cover annual wellness exams as preventive care with no out-of-pocket cost. Modera Clinic accepts most major insurance plans at all three locations. Contact your nearest office in Frisco, Prosper, or Little Elm to verify your specific coverage before your appointment.
What is the difference between a wellness exam and a sick visit?
A wellness exam is a preventive health screening performed when you are feeling healthy, focused on detecting potential issues before symptoms develop. A sick visit, or acute care appointment, addresses a specific illness, injury, or symptom you are currently experiencing. Modera Clinic offers both services, and our team can help determine which type of appointment is right for your needs.
What age should my child start getting wellness exams?
Children should receive regular wellness exams starting from infancy, with visits recommended at increasing intervals as they grow. For school-age children and teens, annual wellness exams help monitor growth, development, and overall health. Modera Clinic provides family-friendly wellness exams and sports physicals for patients of all ages at our Frisco, Prosper, and Little Elm offices.
How do I prepare for a wellness exam?
To prepare for your wellness exam, bring a list of current medications and supplements, your insurance card, and any relevant medical records. Write down questions or health concerns you want to discuss. If bloodwork is expected, your doctor may ask you to fast for 8-12 hours before your appointment. Wear comfortable clothing for the physical examination.
Can I combine a wellness exam with other services at Modera Clinic?
Yes, Modera Clinic offers both primary care and med spa services at all three locations, so you can schedule a wellness exam alongside a consultation for weight loss, mental health, functional medicine, or any of our aesthetic treatments. Our integrated approach allows our physicians to address your total health and wellness in one convenient visit.

Med Spa services are cash pay and we offer competitive pricing so that your our of pocket costs are affordable for your health goals.
