Overview
Developing a sound long-term health strategy can be a challenge for some men- it takes time which is often in short supply. But seeking information, making positive changes and being aware of your risks and strengths regarding your health can pay off with greater energy, increased longevity, less worry, and overall improved quality of life.
Above & Beyond Care membership can be a good option for men. As much as 85% of medical care can be done over the phone, from the convenience of home or office.
Issues to consider
Men seek medical care much less often - how can we support you?
Do you have a “Preventive Maintenance Strategy” (e.g. your car, boat, plane)?
What is your BMI? and how fit are you?
Do you know your medical risks and how to reduce them?
Find out your family history of heart disease, aortic aneurysm, cholesterol, cancer.
Some common questions IMC can address
Should I get a PSA test?
What is my risk for a heart attack?
Can I start exercising and if so, where do I start?
Could I get a prescription for... ah...er...V----?
