“In addition, we are encouraging parents to take advantage of a more thorough physical exam for their child which is available at a time convenient for them at one of the MHS Family Healthcare Clinics.   This exam includes lab work; a heart and respiratory check; health education; a full physical exam including an assessment for risk behavior, safety and health issues; treatment for current health problems, assessment for maturity and development, and  immunizations as needed,” shares Deborah Ruggles, Director of Healthcare Practices at McKenzie Health System. “These exams are often covered by health plans, and are an excellent way to keep your child healthy and safe as they move through high school.  Call 810-648-3770 for more information about the Family Practitioners at MHS or to set up an appointment.”
