What's included

  • Annual wellness visits
  • Health screenings
  • Chronic disease management, including diabetes and hypertension
  • Coordinated ongoing care

The annual wellness visit as a baseline

An annual physical isn't built around a specific complaint — it's the one visit each year where your vitals, your medication list, and your health history all get reviewed together, so your provider has an up-to-date baseline to compare against if something changes later. Health screenings appropriate for your age and history are discussed at this visit, and anything that needs lab work gets ordered from there rather than left for a separate appointment. If this year's numbers look different from last year's, that comparison is only possible because the same visit happened on the same schedule the year before — which is the real value of making it a yearly habit rather than something to get to eventually. Patients sometimes ask at a wellness visit whether they need vitamin D or B12 checked, and the vitamin D and B12 blood tests guide explains that routine testing is not recommended for everyone.

Chronic conditions, tracked over time rather than visit to visit

Diabetes, hypertension, and high cholesterol are conditions that are managed, not resolved in a single appointment, which is why this service is framed around ongoing coordination rather than a one-time fix. Your provider schedules follow-up visits at whatever cadence fits your situation, reviews labs and vitals against what was recorded last time, and adjusts your care plan as things change — rather than starting the conversation over at each visit. Dr. Gurpreet Singh Sareen's own focus areas include preventive care and chronic disease management specifically, and Dr. Moises Sebastian at the Belle Glade office has particular experience managing diabetes, hypertension, and cholesterol disorders together.

Screenings and your history

Which screenings make sense for you depends on your age, your history, and what your provider has already found — not a single checklist applied the same way to everyone. That's discussed directly at your wellness visit, and anything flagged gets scheduled as a specific follow-up rather than left as a general recommendation with no next step attached. A routine checkup often includes a complete blood count, and the complete blood count guide explains in plain words what red cells, white cells, and platelets tell your provider. Screening choices depend on your history too, and colorectal cancer screening is one example, since the right test and start age change with family history, as the colorectal cancer screening guide explains.

Who manages this at each office

Preventive care and chronic disease management is one of Dr. Gurpreet Singh Sareen's own stated focus areas, and it's a central part of the practice's work at every office — Dr. Shahnaz Akhter at West Palm Beach, Dr. Moises Lancelot Sebastian at Belle Glade, and Brenique Ademola, APRN, at Port St. Lucie under Dr. Sareen's medical direction, all build ongoing chronic condition follow-up into their regular visit schedules rather than treating it as a separate program you have to ask for.

What national screening guidelines list for adults

The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force grades preventive services, and its A and B grades mark the ones it most highly recommends. These are a few that apply broadly to adults, summarized so you know what a wellness visit may bring up:

  • Blood pressure screening for every adult age 18 and older
  • Colorectal cancer screening for adults 45 to 75
  • Prediabetes and type 2 diabetes screening for adults 35 to 70 who have overweight or obesity
  • Hepatitis C screening for adults 18 to 79
  • Depression screening for adults, and anxiety screening for adults 64 or younger
  • Questions about tobacco use and unhealthy alcohol use for every adult
  • A conversation about a statin for adults 40 to 75 who have a cardiovascular risk factor and an estimated 10-year risk of 10 percent or more

Screening finds things before symptoms do

MedlinePlus describes screenings as tests that look for disease before you have symptoms, when it is often easier to treat. Which ones you need depends on your age, sex, family history, and risk factors, so the list above is a menu and not a checklist. Some can be done in an office visit, while others, such as a mammogram or colonoscopy, need special equipment and are arranged at another facility. Whatever is done, MedlinePlus suggests asking when you will get the results and whom to talk to about them, and that is a fair question to put to your provider before you leave.

Will the same provider follow my chronic condition over time?

Yes — your follow-up visits for a chronic condition like diabetes or hypertension are scheduled with the same provider you started with, so your care plan builds on what was reviewed at your last visit instead of starting over each time you come in.

What happens if a screening finds something that needs follow-up?

Your provider will go over the result with you at the visit, explain what it means, and schedule whatever comes next — a repeat test, a referral, or a closer follow-up interval — before you leave. Nothing is left as an open recommendation with no appointment attached to it.
