Get Ahead of the Game – Schedule Sports Physicals

April 1, 2022 in Family Practice, News

As we inch closer to school being out, the last thing parents are thinking about are sports for next fall. Get ahead of the game and reach out to your healthcare provider to get your appointment scheduled. 

“Wellness exams are important for our teenagers whether or not they are playing sports. The exam allows myself and my colleagues to cover all the healthcare related topics that our adolescents might not otherwise discuss,” shared Dr. Clinton Cummings. Your healthcare provider will help to determine if it’s safe for your child to play a certain sport, perform checks/tests for preventative care, ensure all necessary immunizations are up-to-date and identify any issues that may become medical concerns in the future.  

Provider schedules fill fast, so don’t wait until the last minute to get your child in. Call your healthcare provider or Regional Family Health at 563-927-7777 before schedules fill!
