What happens during a physical examination?

Usually, a nurse will come first and ask you questions regarding your health.

They will ask how you live as well including if you smoke, drink alcohol, and how much you exercise a week.

After that, the Doctor will begin to inspect your body for any growths or marks that may look unusual.

Then, you may have to lie down and they will begin looking to various parts of the body to make sure everything is healthy.

Your doctor will also check pulse, height, and weight.

Once that is done, your Doctor will ask you some questions and if everything looks good. You will be able to go about your day in Bakersfield, California.
