7 A.M.: MEET THE NURSE AND PHYSICIAN
We'll take time to explain your day and address any health questions that may arise. The nurse will test your vision, draw blood, take weight and height measurements, and check your blood pressure standing, sitting, and lying. You will then meet with the physician and begin an extensive consultation and thorough physical exam. All in all, you'll be with the physician for an hour and a half. Next, the nurse will escort you to each test and explain what will take place.


9 A.M.: TESTING BEGINS

Before lunch you will sit down with a clinical dietician who will review your 3-day diet analysis and offer suggestions on improving your health through diet choices.

11:45 A.M.: LUNCH
We serve a delightful heart-healthy lunch (and breakfast as well!) Our buffet even includes a guilt-free dessert.

12:15 P.M.: PHYSICIAN CONSULTATION
Before you go home, you'll go over your test results with the physician who will explain them and answer your questions. After your visit you'll receive a comprehensive report on all your testing procedures. At your request, we will also send a copy of your results to your personal physician to ensure continuity of your healthcare.

12:50 P.M.: RELAXATION MASSAGE
Absolutely wonderful way to finish the day. What more can we say? Our clients rave about it.

IN BY 7 A.M., OUT BY 2 P.M.
EVEN YOU CAN AFFORD THAT KIND OF TIME COMMITMENT
