Preventive Screenings & EKG
Preventive Screenings & EKG
Preventive screenings and EKGs are simple, non-invasive checks that help our team spot potential health concerns before they become bigger problems. These tools are often part of a routine annual physical, giving your provider a clearer picture of your heart health, blood pressure trends, and other key markers over time.
What These Screenings Involve
- EKG (Electrocardiogram) — A quick, painless test that records the heart's electrical activity to check rhythm and rate.
- Routine Preventive Screenings — Basic checks such as blood pressure readings, weight, and other measures reviewed as part of ongoing preventive care.
Who You'll See
Dr. Eyad Michel Hijazin, a board-certified internal medicine physician and practice director, oversees preventive care services across Allied Healthcare Physicians. Providers such as Nada Salem, PA-C, and Effie Shilhan, NP, also support patients through routine preventive and primary care visits, including screenings that may lead to an EKG when appropriate.
Why It Matters
Because these screenings are typically done during a regular visit, they fit naturally into ongoing care rather than requiring a separate appointment or outside referral.
