It is tempting to shrug off symptoms, avoid the doctor, or
go about your day unaware that you have a medical condition. But experience
tells us that early detection is the first and often the most crucial step in
treating an illness.
That’s why Parrish Medical Center offers health assessments
and uses leading-edge health diagnostics technology to detect illness and
disease at the earliest stage — when it is most treatable.
Through our unique Direct Access Lab Testing service, you
have access to some of the newest blood tests and screenings available today. That’s
a big advantage for early detection and, ultimately, for your health. In
addition, we offer all routine blood tests. No doctor’s order needed.
We believe in empowering our patients through knowledge and
support. When you know your risks for developing certain illnesses, you can
take action for your health. Through our
HealthAware
risk assessments, we offer a full suite of online tests that let you evaluate
your health in six areas:
Each assessment takes just seven minutes, and those seven
minutes could change your life. By answering a series of confidential questions
from the comfort of your home computer, you can quickly gauge your risks. You
will receive a score of low, medium, high or critical in each area, based on
questions about your age, family history and lifestyle.
Through our Know Your Score campaign, Parrish Medical Center
encourages the community members we serve to understand your current health
status. You’ll be empowered to make healthier decisions, reduce your risks for
conditions like heart disease and stroke, and increase your quality of life.
If your score is low, it can indicate you are on the right
track and offer you peace of mind. And if your score is high, we give you the
option to schedule a free consultation with a Parrish Medical Center health
advisor. Advisors are trained to help you review your results and develop an
action plan. Do it now, because nothing is more valuable than your health.
