School & Sports Physicals

School and sports physicals check that a student is ready for the classroom, the field, or the court. These visits typically review growth, vision, hearing, heart and lung function, and any past injuries or health conditions that might affect activity. Many schools and athletic programs require a current physical form before the year begins, and families often schedule these visits in the weeks leading up to registration or tryouts.

What the Visit Covers

Vision Screening — a quick eye chart check to confirm a student can see clearly for schoolwork and sports.
Audiometry — a basic hearing screening, useful for routine physicals.
Automated Blood Pressure Monitoring — consistent readings as part of the standard exam.
12-Lead EKG — available if a heart tracing is needed to check rhythm before clearance.
Spirometry — a breathing test that can help evaluate asthma symptoms that come up during activity.
Digital Scale & Body Composition — accurate height, weight and BMI tracking as part of the exam.

Before You Come In

Bring any required school or athletic forms, a list of current medications, and details on past injuries, surgeries, or ongoing conditions. Visit summaries and forms can be reviewed afterward through the Patient Portal, and any needed prescriptions are sent electronically to your pharmacy through E-Prescribing.
