What Can I Expect During My Physical?

Depending on your needs, we can perform a number of screenings and in-house lab tests to monitor your hormones, cholesterol levels, blood sugar, and more. If you are taking any medications or have noticed changes in your health since your last appointment, we'll discuss those and talk about treatments or lifestyle changes that might help. Finally, Dr. Banerjee may refer you to a specialist as needed to deal with specific conditions or symptoms.
