The goals include discovering and treating medical conditions that don’t cause symptoms, checking age-appropriate screenings and having routine lab studies. Tune in to hear how to prepare for your annual physical and how you can play a proactive role in your health care by keeping tabs on your symptoms, family history, use of alcohol, smoking/vaping, diet and exercise.

Your Real Champion – “Healing as a Doctor and a Nun”
Sister Judith Jacobus is devoted to the art of healing. After medical school and residency, she built a large family medicine practice filled with grateful patients. She greatly appreciated the close relationships she had with family, friends, and patients but felt the unceasing yearning to serve in the religious life. At the age of 45 she answered God’s call to another vocation and joined the Little Sisters of the Poor.
