The key to prevention is staying proactive.
Getting recommended screenings is the best thing you can do for your health and peace of mind.
At [Hospital], we offer the latest tests to identify your risk for common conditions or find any concerns early, when they’re most treatable. And with flexible, same-day appointments and locations close to home, we’ve made it easy to take charge of your health.
See if these screenings are right for you.
Low-dose lung scan
Signs of lung cancer usually don’t appear until it’s too late. Low-dose CT can detect the disease before symptoms show—in fact, it’s 4 times more likely to pick up mass than a traditional chest X-rays, greatly improving survival rates. The screening is safe, painless, and covered by most insurances for those who qualify.
Diabetes
If you have high blood pressure, or take medication to control it, you should get regular screenings for diabetes. Also consider testing if you experience symptoms like excessive thirst, frequent urination, increased hunger, and unexpected weight loss. The preferred test measures your average blood sugar over the last 3 months.
Heart scan
80% of heart attacks and strokes are preventable when you know and control your risk factors. Start with a simple scan to measure calcium buildup in your arteries. If needed, our cardiologists can help you develop a personalized plan to help lower your risk and support a heart-healthy life.
Prostate screenings
Men 50 and older are encouraged to get annual prostate exams. African-Americans and those with a family history of prostate cancer should be screened sooner. We offer proven, routine screenings like the antigen (PSA) blood test, which looks for elevated levels of a protein that may indicate signs of cancer.
