Saddleback Memorial Medical Center - Laguna Hills & San Clemente Just for Women Program

Every year after the age of 40, it is recommended that all women get a comprehensive physical fitness review & assessment. If this is the first such comprehensive work up, the report enables the woman and her primary care doctor to identify issues before they develop into chronic problems. With each subsequent annual update, you can easily chart your progress & see how things may change over the years.

Most insurance plans cover the cost of the physical (around $300) and it is usually more comprehensive than what is available in a doctor’s office. It includes:

• Blood work
• Hearing test
• Balance review
• Vision screening
• Flexibility Analysis
• EKG to check your heart
• Time with a physician for in-depth discussion of results & plan for next steps
• A printout with results trended over the years
