What is an executive physical?

A traditional check up/physical/annual check up usually includes a brief visit with your primary card doctor which is a general examination and basic blood work limited to what is covered by your insurance.

An executive physical is a much more thorough, comprehensive and detail oriented exam that evaluates every organ system. In addition to a traditional check up, the executive physical also focuses on early detection of cancer, early screening for heart disease as well as early detection of any organ system dysfunction.
