Wellness Exams Performed at Optimum Direct Care in Orlando, FL

Some people skip their wellness exams and avoid going to the doctor altogether unless they absolutely have to, which is understandable given the skyrocketing costs of traditional healthcare. But, it’s important to see your primary care doctor on a regular basis – even if you feel perfectly fine.

The fact is, a doctor who knows you in good health can provide better care when you’re not. In addition to strengthening your relationship with your doctor, regular wellness exams provide opportunities to nip many illnesses in the bud, before they take a toll on your health and your bank account.

Wellness Exams Are Included in a Direct Primary Care (DPC) Membership

Established with a goal to build strong and trusted doctor-patient relationships – as well as the foundation for optimum health over a lifetime – DPC is a relatively new take on traditional primary healthcare. As a member of Optimum Direct Care, a DPC practice in Orlando, Florida, you’ll have unrestricted access to our board-certified family practice physician, Dr. Toni “Muzzi” Muzzonigro. Along with many other primary care services, Dr. Muzzi will provide unlimited wellness exams, all of which are included in your monthly membership fee.

What Do Wellness Exams Involve?

Using pre-established guidelines for your age group as a starting point, Dr. Muzzi will customize your wellness exam based on your personal and family medical history. After determining what is “normal” for you, she’ll then establish a baseline for maintaining your overall health going forward.

When performing a wellness exam, Dr. Muzzi will typically:

Check your vital signs, including your body temperature, blood pressure, heart rate, and respiration rate
Review your medications, including prescription drugs, over-the-counter remedies, and nutritional supplements
Perform a physical exam
Update your vaccinations, such as your tetanus booster and annual flu shot
Recommend appropriate screening tests, such as a Pap smear, colonoscopy, bone density scan, blood test, and/or urinalysis

Dr. Muzzi is known for her warm and compassionate manner, and she’ll help you feel comfortable almost immediately. This is important because you’ll need to be completely honest with her when discussing your lifestyle. That way, Dr. Muzzi will be able to provide you with the most appropriate recommendations and education to protect your health.

“We learned of Dr. Muzzi and her staff via our cost sharing provider, Liberty Health Share. We chose to join the practice because Dr. Muzzi is an excellent physician, she can see and treat our whole family, and we can have 24-hour access. The direct primary care model is SO much more convenient and gives me additional piece of mind. Dr. Muzzi goes above and beyond for her patients. She really takes the time to listen and understand my questions, thoughts, and concerns. She helps educate me while also respecting my choices and preferences, which is very important to me as a mom. I know my family is receiving the best possible care under Dr Muzzi. I’ve never experienced another doctor so passionate about truly helping her patients. She goes above and beyond for us, and we are truly grateful to have her in our lives! Her nurse Erin is awesome and takes great care of us as well! If you want the best care possible, and the added peace of mind of direct access then look no further!”
