Q: What should I do to prepare for my Executive Physical?

A: We ask that you not have anything to eat or drink except water at least 6 hours prior to your scheduled appointment. Wear loose comfortable clothing for your physical that can be removed easily for examination purposes. Bring a sweater or sweatshirt, as examination rooms may be cool.
Part of your physical may involve being on a treadmill. Wear appropriate walking or running shoes and/or shoes that can also be easily removed during tests. Women: for a mammogram - no body powder or deodorant until the test is complete. For any CT or radiology tests, a sports bra with no metal clasps would be ideal.
