An annual wellness exam is the highest-leverage hour you can spend on your health each year: a baseline of where you are, risks flagged before they become diagnoses, and a clear plan for the next 12 months. At Lifetime Vitality Clinic in Portland, that means a real prevention strategy, not a box-checking visit.

What's included in your annual exam

Your visit covers the full picture: physical, mental, and lifestyle. Depending on your age, sex, and family history, your provider will review and update:

Vitals: blood pressure, heart rate, weight, BMI
Cancer screenings (breast, cervical, colon, prostate, skin)
Cardiovascular risk and cholesterol panel
Diabetes and prediabetes screening
Mental health: depression, anxiety, sleep, stress
Cognitive and memory screening (when age-appropriate)
Medication and supplement reconciliation

Why an annual exam matters

Most chronic conditions, diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, certain cancers, develop silently. By the time you have symptoms, treatment is more invasive and outcomes are worse. An annual exam catches issues while lifestyle and early treatment still work, and keeps your records, prescriptions, and screenings in one place.

Your personalized prevention plan

Every patient leaves with a written plan tailored to their risk profile and goals: targeted screenings, nutrition and activity recommendations, prescription updates, referrals if needed, and a clear schedule for the year ahead.

Questions, Answered

Frequently asked questions.

Don’t see your question? Reach out and we’ll answer it directly.

How long does an annual wellness exam take?

Plan for 45–60 minutes. New patients should add 15 minutes for paperwork.

What's the difference between a physical and an annual wellness visit?

A physical is a hands-on exam typically required for jobs, sports, or insurance. A Medicare Annual Wellness Visit is a preventive planning visit, no exam required. We can do either, or combine them if appropriate.

Do I need to fast before my annual exam?

If we're drawing labs that include a lipid panel or fasting glucose, fast 8–12 hours beforehand. We'll let you know when we set up your visit.

Is the annual exam covered by insurance?

Coverage depends on your specific plan. Most plans include a yearly preventive visit, and Medicare offers an Annual Wellness Visit. Check with your insurer for the details that apply to you.
