New Year, New You—Recommit to Health in 2021!

Make 2021 a healthy YOU year—and make your health and wellness a priority for this next trip around the sun. Schedule the annual healthcare appointments you need that give you a full picture of your health. If you’re behind on wellness visits, screenings or treatments for chronic conditions, get back in the groove—and on schedule—with these important regular healthcare visits.

AN OUNCE OF PREVENTION IS WORTH A POUND OF CURE—BE PROACTIVE ABOUT YOUR HEALTH; GET THE SCREENINGS YOU NEED

Delaying important care can make conditions worsen. Annual appointments are your chance to have important screenings to detect problems before they get worse. Routine and recommended screenings make sure you’re at your healthiest even if you don't yet have recognizable symptoms. Things like colonoscopies, mammograms, and of course, a visit with your primary care provider yearly, are an important step in the prevention, detection, and cure of some very serious diseases. 

SERIOUS ILLNESSES WON’T WAIT—EVEN DURING A PANDEMIC

If you’ve been avoiding important wellness visits, screenings or care for chronic conditions because of COVID-19, it’s more important than ever to get the care you need. Serious illnesses like cancer, diabetes and heart disease simply won’t wait. Getting the important screenings that you need is important sooner, rather than later.

So, raise a glass—or something healthy of course—to a new year of happiness, hope and health. A visit with your primary care provider is the best place to start.
