For overall Heath and Wellness...
"An ounce of prevention really is worth a pound of cure"
What is Health Screening?
Simply the procedure of monitoring diagnostic information obtained through several basic clinical tests. These can primarily include blood pressure testing, blood sugar or glucose level testing and cholesterol monitoring to determine you body's basic state of health. Once your basic level of health and wellness is established, the pharmacists at McCrorys Pharmacy can help you determine the necessary steps for you to achieve overall health and wellness. You'll be happy to know that McCrorys Pharmacy has a registered nurse on staff to administer these tests so you can be sure the tests will be performed professionally and accurately. After a few days, you'll be asked to return to McCrorys Pharmacy for a personal consultation to discuss the results of your recent tests. It's just that simple!
How long has it been since you had your cholesterol levels checked? Physicians recommend that all adults 20 years of age or older should have their cholesterol checked at least once every five years and that is for otherwise healthy adults. While periodic lab work at your doctors office may include cholesterol screening, we want you to know that you dont have to wait for a check up to check your cholesterol levels. McCrorys Pharmacy now offers blood cholesterol testing with reliable results in minutes and that can include tri-glycerides, HDL, LDL, and total cholesterol numbers. This can be of great benefit for you and your physician in terms of monitoring your progress between doctor visits. Well be happy to give you more details when your call is answered or on your next visit to McCrorys Pharmacy.
People who have had one heart attack... are traditionally at much higher risk for a second heart attack. Reducing blood cholesterol levels can greatly slow down and for some of us, even reverse the build up of cholesterol and fat in the wall of coronary arteries. Whether you're on prescription medications or herbal alternatives for lowering blood cholesterol levels, McCrorys Pharmacy now makes it easy for you and your physician to track your progress even between doctor visits and lab tests. Ask about cholestech, cholesterol screenings. The tests are quick and virtually painless with reliable results in minutes. We can provide you with a patient record to take home or to your doctor, showing tri-glycerides, HDL, LDL, and total cholesterol readings.
