What does preventive care include?

Preventive care covers the routine services that help you stay healthy and avoid serious illness down the road. This involves annual physicals, screenings, and lab work, but it also goes further.

It can include reviewing lifestyle factors like sleep, nutrition, and stress, since these often affect health as much as test results do. Some of the preventive services offered at Direct Wellness RVA include:

• Annual wellness visits and physicals
• Recommended vaccinations
• Routine labs and screenings
• Blood pressure tests
• Cholesterol checks
• Lifestyle and nutrition counseling

Grace and the team tailor these services to suit your age, health history, and personal goals.

Why is preventive care so important?

It’s easy to delay doctor visits when you’re feeling fine, but preventive care is one of the best investments you can make in your health. Many conditions, like high blood pressure or prediabetes, develop silently and cause no noticeable symptoms until they’ve progressed. By catching them early, you can often prevent long-term complications.

Preventive care also helps you feel more in control. Instead of waiting until something goes wrong, you’ll have regular check-ins at Direct Wellness RVA to track your progress and make adjustments before small issues become major concerns. This proactive approach saves you time, money, and stress in the long run.

How does membership-based preventive care work? 

Traditional healthcare providers often speed through preventive visits, leaving little room to talk about your goals or questions. At Direct Wellness RVA, membership means you can take the time you need. Longer appointments with Grace and the team allow for discussions about lifestyle, risk factors, and ways to optimize your overall well-being.

Grace can order labs, review results in detail, and create a plan that reflects your specific needs. If issues do arise, you’ll be able to follow up quickly without worrying about extra copays or hidden charges. Preventive care becomes an ongoing partnership, so you can stay healthier and more confident in your care.
