MELODY FOX NP
Primary Care
Optimize your health and wellness journey with an Annual Health Assessment, featuring personalized diagnostic tests depending on your age, sex and health status. It goes deeper and broader than your average yearly physical to paint a detailed picture of your current health and determine if future risks at earlier stages to help you effectively manage and reverse illness.
What to Expect
A Health & Wellness Deep-Dive
Receive a head-to-toe evaluation by a range over the course of several hours.
Your experience includes a private one-on-one consultation with our nurse practitioner—one of the most valuable aspects of our Annual Health Assessment. Together you’ll review your results to determine which areas of your health can be improved upon through lifestyle changes, and which may require further medical attention.
Should any health concerns arise during your assessment, we’ll either book an appointment for you with a specialist or refer you to a preferred specialist in your community. If your nurse practitioner recommends it, we can also connect you to respected health experts at top healthcare centres following your assessment.
