What happens during primary care appointments
Because every patient is different, Dr. Festa and his team customize each appointment to meet your personalized needs. They review your medical history and check your weight, blood pressure, pulse, and other vital signs.
Dr. Festa completes a comprehensive physical exam. He evaluates your eyes, nose, throat, breathing, heartbeat, reflexes, abdomen, and limbs. During women’s health exams, Dr. Festa can complete a pelvic exam and Pap test to screen for cervical cancer.
The Rejuvenation Center for Mind and Body team might use blood tests, nasal or throat swabs, urine tests, lung function tests, skin prick tests, imaging procedures, or other diagnostic tests to screen for medical conditions requiring treatment.
Will I require treatment?
You might not require treatment during primary care appointments if you’re in good health. If you have an illness or disease, however, Dr. Festa might recommend one of the following:
- Weight loss, diet, or exercise
- Dietary supplements
- Medications
- Hormone replacement therapy
- Further diagnostic testing
- Dermatology treatment or wound care
- Minor surgical procedures
- Mental health or addiction treatment
If you’d like vaccines, Botox®, dermal fillers, other cosmetic injectables, or hair restoration, the team at Rejuvenation Center for Mind and Body offers these optional treatments. Dr. Festa can refer out to specialists if you have a complex medical issue.
