Well Person Care Q & A

What is well-person care?

Well-person care is a proactive, whole-body approach to health where you and Erin ensure your body’s systems are working as they should, or catch things before they become bigger issues.

These visits are often called "annual exams" or "well-woman visits," but that language doesn’t always reflect everyone who needs this care. So, let’s call it what it is: care for anyone with a body that needs it, regardless of labels. Well-person care at Solace Health helps you feel your best, detect issues early, and stay on top of your health.

Why do I need well-person care?

Even if you feel fine, an annual exam is like routine maintenance for your health. At Solace Health, well-person care ensures:

  • Preventive care, identifying and treating potential problems before they worsen
  • Reproductive health, addressing concerns ranging from contraception to family planning
  • Personalized support for menopause and perimenopause
  • Screenings, including Pap smears and human papillomavirus (HPV) testing

Erin offers truly inclusive care, asking thoughtful questions, avoiding assumptions about your gender or sexuality, and supporting your goals for your body.

How can I prepare for my well-person care appointment?

You may find it helpful to write down questions or concerns you want to talk about. For example, you might want to discuss:

  • Menstrual cycle irregularities
  • Safer sex practices
  • Your options for birth control or menstrual suppression
  • Any questions regarding your intimate health and overall wellness
  • Questions or concerns about sexual health

There’s no wrong way to use your annual visit. It’s your time to ask, share, and feel heard.

What can I expect at a well-person care visit?

Your examination and visit with Erin may include:

  • A conversation about your health history and lifestyle
  • Blood pressure, weight, and general vitals check
  • Breast/chest, pelvic, and cervical exams
  • Pap smear
  • Sexually transmitted disease (STD) screenings, birth control counseling, and reproductive health support
  • Prostate exam
  • Gender-affirming care or hormone therapy support, if applicable

Well-person care is more than exams and data. At Solace Health, it’s about listening to you, honoring your identity, and helping you achieve your goals.

Taking time each year to check on your health is one of the kindest things you can do for yourself, so don’t delay. Book your well-person care visit by calling Solace Health today or scheduling online.
