When to See a Doctor

It's important to take control of your health to prevent getting sick. The information below is designed to help you know when you and your family should see the doctor and schedule regular checkups.

Health Risk Assessment
When you enroll in AAHP you receive a Health Risk Assessment Survey form by mail. This survey measures general health indicators and identifies how our nurses may be able to help you by coordinating access to the appropriate services. In addition,  the Health Risk Assessment Survey may help you understand your medical condition and how to stay as healthy and active as possible. Participation in the Health Risk Assessment Survey is voluntary and is available at no cost to you. 
View and print out the Health Risk Assessment Survey.

Adult Care
Adults should see their doctor for well-care visits annually and/or when they are sick. It is important to get well-care screenings when you are not sick. A doctor's visit can include:

Preventive screening for women

Preventive screening for men

Preventive care for all adults
