What Is A School Physical?
A school physical is a simple way to ensure that your child is prepared for the school year and any extracurricular activities. Many schools require physical exams for school sports or other programs, as they help verify that children are healthy and ready to participate. At Jackson Medical Associates, we provide school physicals in the comfort and convenience of our Sylva, NC office so you can easily meet these requirements and enjoy peace of mind about your child's well-being. We are committed to providing a comfortable, welcoming environment so both you and your child can feel relaxed about their visit. Contact Jackson Medical Associates to set up your child's next school physical.
How Does A School Physical Work?
School physicals are performed at our Sylva, NC practice where our team will assess your child's overall health to ensure they're ready for the school year. We'll start with a comprehensive review of their medical history and conduct a series of checks, such as measuring height and weight, evaluating vision and hearing, and ensuring all immunizations are up to date. This exam also provides an opportunity to discuss any health concerns related to physical activities so your child can safely participate in sports and other programs. Our goal is to make sure your child is healthy and that you feel confident in their ability to thrive.
What Are the Benefits of School Physicals?
School physicals help families stay ahead of potential health issues and ensure that children meet school requirements. They can also help you feel comfortable in the knowledge that your child can safely participate in school activities. The benefits of regular physicals for school include:
- Confirmation of overall health and fitness
- Assurance that immunizations are current
- Identification of any health concerns for early intervention
- Clearance for sports and other physical activities
- A valuable opportunity to discuss health and wellness with our team
Jackson Medical Associates Reviews
This was my first visit since moving to NC and noticed their parking lot can get full quickly esp since they share parking lot with the facility across from them but nevertheless the building once you walk in is absolutely gorgeous and the exam rooms compliment the entire style and is very cohesive. My provider, Lydia Teague, is absolutely amazing, funny and thorough and explained all the services they offer in house such as blood work which is crucial because it saves you an extra step from going to a different facility in order to get the results needed. They utilize a portal that provides a lot of features such as blood work results and notes from the visit. I schedule a follow up for next year and look forward to utilizing their services.
I moved from western NC 3 years ago and I still say this is the best provider office I’ve ever had. Great people and great service.
Fantastic service and willing to listen. We are from out of town and were surprised with awesome care. Emily was the best.
The staff is great
Dr Wolf has been my family doctor for almost 15 years. He was my mom’s doctor until she had to go to a nursing home. He is also my husband’s, and both adult children’s. He is caring and knowledgeable.
