I was told to be there at 6:30 and Wellstar said it open at 6:45. A Young and polite lady named Alana escorted me to my check in point. There I met a very polite and professional Young Lady named Alexis. She took all my new information (insurance). Very kind and understanding. Then John Aaron did his job as always (Professional) and polite and very concerned with any or all issue. He is an A Plus for Wellstar. Proceeded to the laboratory for bloodwork. Gabby did a fabulous job. Got the vein and blood first time. Very kind and professional as well. It was a great experience from the entrance to the exit. Thank You Wellstar!

I scheduled a "physical", showed up, filled in all paperwork (already have a chart), was in room from 8:10 to 8:35 answering general health questions. PA comes in and checks vitals throat, darts, etc, nice gentlemen. Mentioned I haven't slept and needed something, told him I had done Ambien before but limited to weekends as I only sleep three to four hours a night. Told me he didn't perscribe ambient and said my sleep pattern was due to anxiety and to treat underlying cause. They said they would need to do boood work another day, I pushed back as times limited. They sent me down stairs where they said go to the left and they will call you back. I waited 40 minutes behind 12 other people, finally stood up and went inside asking what was up? They told me I didn't log into a portal, nobody said to...I left at 10:39, 2 & 1/2 hours??? My time is far too valuable and that is unacceptable...that said, they were kind enough but please, wait times are horrible. My wife had a great experience at her appointment, I'm sure it was just expectations but you should know.

Your Men’s Health Playbook
Your late teens, 20s & 30s Striving for top health performance
You may feel on top of your game—even unbeatable—In your 20s and 30s. You may be tempted to think, “Why even bother with a physical?” Yet this is training season for building up lifelong healthy habits.
Establish your care coach: In your late teens to early 20s, transition from your pediatrician and establish yourself with a primary care physician, nurse practitioner or physician assistant by scheduling a physical.
“When young men show up for preventive care, we talk about the future,” said Dr. Dean Seehusen, chair of Family & Community Medicine at Wellstar MCG Health Medical Center in Augusta. “Then we talk about what that’s going to take habit-wise. What you can do in your 60s and 70s is based on what you’re doing in your 20s, 30s and 40s.”
Stay on top of your stats: The information from your annual exam can help you stay on track to live out your vision, measured in part by important health stats—like glucose and cholesterol levels, body mass index and blood pressure. Staying on top of your trending numbers can help prevent heart disease, stroke and diabetes down the road.
It’s also a good time to talk about your vaccine status, such as tetanus (needed every 10 years) and HPV. To protect yourself and your partner, it’s important to test for human papillomavirus. Also known as HPV, it’s the most common sexually transmitted infection and can cause several types of cancer for men and women, even though you likely won’t have symptoms. You may have already received this vaccine in your teens, but if you haven’t yet, it’s recommended through the age of 26.
Men may also consider self-screening for testicular cancer through self-exams during these earlier healthcare years, according to John Aaron III, a physician assistant who cares for patients at Wellstar Family Medicine in Alpharetta.
Look for weaknesses: Make your health team aware of your family medical history, from heart disease and stroke to cancer. This will help them create a personalized health plan for you. You may need screenings or tests for certain health conditions at an earlier age than the average population.
