Why Do We Recommend an Annual Exam?

Exams are recommended annually at UWH of Texas as a regular check-in with your care team. These consistent checkups allow our team to track your health over time and catch potential concerns before they become serious.

  • Annual Exams Help You Receive the Right Care
    Annual exams help detect health concerns early with a focus on preventive care and health guidance specific to your age and phase of life. Regular visits help us monitor your reproductive health, breast health, and overall wellness.

    If you experience changes in your reproductive health, notice new symptoms, or if you're due for specific screenings, we recommend that you schedule your visit sooner. Our providers are here to support you whenever you need us.
  • Build a Trusting Relationship with Your Provider
    A strong provider-patient relationship is key to receiving personalized care that evolves with your health needs. By visiting regularly with your care team, we can work together to stay proactive about your well-being and build a strong, trusting relationship over time.

What Happens During an Annual Exam?

During your annual exam, your provider will review your health history, discuss lifestyle and wellness goals, and perform a physical and pelvic exam. We’ll recommend certain screenings, such as a Pap smear or a mammogram, based on your age and risk factors. This is also your chance to discuss birth control, reproductive health, or menopause symptoms with your provider.

We Address Women's Health Needs at Every Life Stage

Your health evolves over time, and so do the focus areas of your annual exams. Each woman has her own priorities and concerns, which may evolve over time. Our annual exams address the many areas of your health, including:

  • Reproductive Health: Annual exams help us check-in with your reproductive health, detect areas of concern early, and discuss fertility based on your goals.
  • Health Screenings: Your provider can recommend screenings for fertility, family planning, and breast health to monitor changes in your body over time.
  • Menopause Care: As hormone levels fluctuate and you begin to enter perimenopause, annual exams help address any related symptoms.
  • Postmenopause Care: Care postmenopause continues with bone health checks and any age-related changes, such as increased risks for osteoporosis or certain cancers.

At every age, regular exams help us be proactive about your health and provide you with the support you need to stay well through every phase of life.

First time meeting Dr. McGuirk. I do have to say, it was a surprising experience. Most first time Doctor are too serious and lacking personality. Dr. McGuirk listened and provided great feedback about my concerns. And made me feel at ease. I truly enjoyed his sense of humor. Thank you!
