Men's Health

What is men’s health?

Men’s health focuses on diagnosing, treating, and preventing diseases common in men. Men have unique health concerns because of their reproductive organs. 

Comprehensive Care Clinic is a family medicine practice that provides compassionate and accessible health care to all ages. 

Mrs. Mitchell specializes in family medicine and has the training and skills to manage men’s health. She takes an individualized approach to care, designing health plans that fit your age, needs, and concerns. 

What services are included in men’s health?

Comprehensive Care Clinic provides many services that benefit men’s health. These services include:

Annual exams
Annual exams assess your current health and risk of future health problems. Annual physical exams at Comprehensive Care Clinic help Mrs. Mitchell to keep track of your health and find issues during the early stages (when conditions are easier to treat).

Your annual exam aims to prevent or delay chronic diseases, helping you to live a long, healthy life.

Health screenings
Mrs. Mitchell performs health screenings to find diseases before you have symptoms. The type of health screenings you need depends on your age and medical history.

Immunizations
Immunizations, also called vaccinations, give your immune system the tools to protect you from common contagious diseases. Mrs. Mitchell updates your immunizations as needed and is recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Chronic disease management
Chronic diseases require ongoing medical care and monitoring to prevent complications. Mrs. Mitchell provides chronic disease management at Comprehensive Care Clinic. She gives you the education, support, and tools you need to manage your chronic disease. 

Diagnostic testing 
Comprehensive Care Clinic also offers diagnostic testing on-site, including electrocardiograms (EKGs) to check heart health and urinalysis to assess organ function. The practice can also screen for acute and chronic health problems.
