Executive Annual Physical Exams Q & A
What is an Executive Annual Physical Exam?
An executive annual physical exam is a comprehensive health check-up designed to provide an in-depth assessment of your overall well-being. These exams are more extensive than traditional annual check-ups and include advanced screenings, lab work, and tests that are customized based on your individual health risks. The goal is to catch any potential health issues early, allowing for quicker interventions and better outcomes.
What Happens During an Executive Physical Exam?
Your executive physical exam begins with a review of your medical history, family health background, and lifestyle factors. Your physician will take the time to discuss your health goals and any concerns you may have. The physical examination itself includes vital sign measurements such as blood pressure, heart rate, weight, and a complete physical exam. Depending on your age, gender, and risk factors, additional screenings, such as mammograms, prostate exams, or cardiovascular health assessments, may be performed. Diagnostic tests, including blood work and urine tests, are often included to provide a more thorough picture of your health.
What Additional Services Are Included in the Executive Physical?
Along with the physical exam, you may receive customized recommendations for screenings such as cancer, diabetes, cholesterol levels, and cardiovascular health. Based on the results of your exam, your physician may suggest lifestyle changes, medications, or even referrals to specialists to address any potential health risks. You will also have an opportunity to discuss mental health, diet, exercise, and other lifestyle factors to optimize your overall wellness.
How Do I Follow Up After My Executive Physical Exam?
Following your executive physical exam, we will review your results and develop a personalized health plan based on our findings. Your physician will help you understand any areas of concern and recommend next steps for maintaining or improving your health. Follow-up visits may be scheduled for further tests, medication management, or consultations to ensure that any health risks are properly addressed. We are here to guide you every step of the way.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in an executive physical exam?
An executive physical at Three Rivers Concierge Medicine goes well beyond a standard annual checkup — it includes a comprehensive physical exam, advanced bloodwork, cardiovascular risk assessment, cancer screenings tailored to your age and risk factors per U.S. Preventive Services Task Force guidelines, body composition analysis, and an extended one-on-one consultation with Dr. Shoemaker. The goal is to surface risks that standard physicals miss, not just confirm you're "fine." Results are reviewed in detail during your visit, with a personalized health plan built around what the data reveals.
How is an executive physical different from a regular annual physical?
A standard annual physical typically lasts 15–18 minutes — according to research in JAMA Internal Medicine — and covers basic vitals, a brief exam, and routine labs. An executive physical at Three Rivers is an in-depth, multi-hour assessment that includes advanced diagnostics, body composition testing, and a detailed review of your health history, lifestyle, and goals. It's the difference between a checklist and a strategy session for your health.
How much does an executive physical cost in St. Louis?
Executive physicals at Three Rivers Concierge Medicine are included as part of your concierge membership, which covers the extended visit time, advanced in-office diagnostics like InBody analysis and ultrasound, and the personalized health planning that follows. Specialized tests like genetic screening or the Galleri multi-cancer detection test may involve additional costs depending on your insurance. Contact the Creve Coeur office at (314) 744-5914 for specifics.
Who should get an executive physical?
Anyone who wants a deeper understanding of their health than a standard checkup provides — especially busy professionals, executives, and adults over 40 with a family history of heart disease, cancer, or metabolic conditions. The American Heart Association notes that nearly half of all U.S. adults have some form of cardiovascular disease, and many of these conditions develop silently for years before symptoms appear. At Three Rivers in St. Louis, executive exams are designed to catch what routine care misses.
How often should I get an executive physical?
Most patients benefit from a comprehensive executive physical annually, with targeted follow-up screenings or labs at intervals determined by their risk profile. Dr. Shoemaker adjusts the scope of each year's exam based on your evolving health data, so you're never repeating unnecessary tests or missing emerging risks. Annual consistency is what turns individual data points into meaningful health trends.
What happens after my executive physical?
Dr. Shoemaker reviews every result with you in a dedicated follow-up consultation — not a portal message or a rushed phone call. You'll receive a personalized health plan with specific action items, whether that means lifestyle modifications, specialist referrals, medication adjustments, or targeted monitoring. Follow-up visits are scheduled as needed to ensure nothing identified during your exam goes unaddressed.
