Prevention, early detection and care when you need it
From your annual wellness exam to an unexpected illness at midnight, here is how Dr. Britten cares for her patients.
An exam that looks at your whole year
The annual wellness examination begins with an interview where the past year is evaluated and your current concerns are shared. It gives Dr. Britten the opportunity to uncover the beginnings of a disease process before it gets out of control, leading to early detection and a greater ability to correct the issue.
- Complete head-to-toe examination
- Routine annual laboratory tests covered by the program
- An individualized booklet with all results and a summary of your exam
Healthier everyday living, with the scheduling handled for you
By focusing on lifestyle changes, nutrition and personal stressors, Dr. Britten guides patients toward a healthier approach to everyday living and an awareness of what they can do to prevent disease.
The staff arranges your preventive testing, such as colonoscopies, mammograms, bone mineral density and prostate testing, removing the hassle of scheduling and insurance questions so it is easier to stay on target.
