What is an executive-level physical exam?

Executive-level physical exams provide a thorough “picture” of your state of health, including:

  • A complete, head-to-toe physical
  • Arrangements for extensive blood work
  • An electrocardiogram (ECG)
  • Preventive care screenings and recommendations

Assessing heart conditions

An electrocardiogram is a non-invasive way to check for different cardiac conditions. By placing electrodes on the patient’s chest, your physician can chart your heart’s signals as a wave. The goal of the ECG portion of your executive-level exam is to identify any irregularities or heart conditions that need to be addressed.

An executive-level physical exam by a concierge physician vs. a standard physician

A concierge physician restricts the number of patients seen in a day, allowing considerably more time and energy to understand the important details of your tests and review the data with you. Results are best understood in relation to your unique circumstances: your family history, your current lifestyle and your health goals for the future. In short, a concierge physician treats you as a unique individual.
