What to Expect During Your Visit
Our team works to make the employment physicals process as smooth and efficient as possible while ensuring your employer's requirements are addressed.
Your provider will review your medical history, current medications, previous surgeries, and any health information relevant to your employment physicals.
A physician-led physical examination will be performed based on your employer's requirements. If TB testing or other requested services are needed, they'll be completed or discussed during your visit.
If all required information is available, we complete the appropriate employer forms during your visit. If additional testing or follow-up is needed to satisfy employer requirements, we explain the next steps and help coordinate any additional care.
Employment Physicals vs. Workers' Compensation Evaluations
Although both services relate to workplace health, they serve different purposes.
Employment Physicals
Employment physicals are performed before starting a new job or when an employer requires a medical evaluation. Their purpose is to assess general health based on employer requirements and complete the necessary medical documentation.
Workers' Compensation Evaluations
Workers' compensation visits are for employees who have been injured or become ill while performing their job duties. These visits focus on evaluating and treating work-related injuries, documenting the condition, and helping manage the workers' compensation process.
If you're unsure which type of visit you need, our team will be happy to help guide you to the appropriate service.
Easy to schedule an appointment. Wait time to be seen is very quick. The provider was very pleasant. This was my second visit, and I will definitely use them again if the need arises.
I can’t say enough positive things about this urgent care. From the receptionist to the nurse and PA, I felt well cared for. Everyone listened attentively to me. I didn’t have a long wait, and my visit was quickly wrapped up. I recommend them 100%.
