Cancer screenings are an important part of your health maintenance. Cancer screenings can detect cancer at its earliest and most treatable stage. If caught early, treatment is typically easier and the chances of surviving are much higher. Adena offers these cancer screenings:
Immunizations, also called vaccines, create immunity to certain diseases. Immunizations are an important part of preventive care. Getting vaccinated can help to keep people, families and even entire communities healthy and safe. The recommended immunizations and vaccinations for kids and teenagers include:
Immunizations are important for older adults, too. Immune systems become weaker with age, which makes it more difficult to fight off infections.
Vaccines recommended for adults include:
Tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis (whooping cough) for all adults who have not previously received a Tdap vaccine

Or, learning that you are pre-diabetic and changing your lifestyle and diet instead of developing type 2 diabetes. These scenarios are common occurrences thanks to preventive health screenings offered by Adena primary care providers in south central Ohio. As part of monitoring your ongoing wellness, Adena offers an array of screenings and preventive measures to keep you healthy and reduce your chances of developing a chronic disease, including:
A yearly physical is a great way to check in with your Adena primary care provider to ask general questions and receive routine exams to make sure everything is running smoothly. Annual appointments typically take no more than 30 minutes depending on the concerns you bring up with your doctor. Our providers check for a number of things during an annual physical, including:
General appearance - Watching you and talking to you about your health can give your doctor insight into your overall health. Does your skin look healthy? How quickly are you able to comprehend and respond to questions? Can you walk around easily? These are all things a doctor looks for when observing you.
Vital signs - Testing for blood pressure, heart rate, respiration rate and temperature are all routine during an annual checkup. Vital signs give the doctor a bird’s eye view into the general state of your body’s most essential organs and functions.
Heart exam - The heart is one of the most vital organs in your body, and your doctor will perform a few tests to check and see if there are signs of disease or any other inhibiting factor. They will listen to your heart with a stethoscope to detect an irregular heartbeat or a murmur – both of which can be signs of heart disease.
Lung exam - Lungs serve an essential purpose in your overall function and health. Your doctor will listen for crackles, irregular breathing sounds or wheezes by using a stethoscope. Irregularities in breathing can be a sign of either lung or heart disease.
Head and neck exam - The doctor will take a look at your throat, tonsils gums and teeth to help determine your overall state of health. The doctor will also likely check your nose, ears, sinuses, lymph nodes and carotid arteries.
Wellness exams and annual physicals are usually covered by most insurance plans, but you may receive a bill for if treatment is given for other conditions during your visit.
