Why get preventive care?

It can save your life. Screening tests and checkups can find problems early — so you can tackle them while they’re easier to treat.

It can stop you from getting sick. Sometimes, preventive care — like some cancer screenings or vaccines — can even keep health problems from developing altogether.

It can give you peace of mind. Regular checkups give you the chance to share concerns and ask questions about your health — and to get the support you deserve.

It can help you be there for the people that matter to you. Because sometimes, taking care of yourself is the best way to care for the ones you love.

Clinical preventative services, like screenings and vaccinations, can be applied at all stages across your lifespan. They are one of the most important tools we have to prevent health problems — or to stop them from getting worse. Screenings can find health problems early, and some screenings can stop problems from developing altogether.
