School & Sports Physicals

School & Sports Physicals

You can get your school and sports physicals done at Anodyne of Westerville. We can usually get you scheduled for a same-day or next-day appointment, unlike many primary care doctors. Also called pre-participation physicals, sport physicals are a great way to make sure an athlete can safely play. Even if the state or school doesn’t require it, sports physicals provide an opportunity to discuss any concerns, perform injury prevention screenings, and complete a sport-specific physical risk assessment.

What to Know Before Your School or Sports Physical:

• Insurance can be verified for coverage. If your physical is not covered by your insurance, our cash fee is only $35.
• Bring any required forms including a completed health and immunization history.
• Our practitioner will review your medical history and immunizations and perform a physical exam, injury prevention screening and sport specific physical assessment to determine if you are able to safely participate in your chosen sport.  Wear clothes that you can comfortably move in.

At the end of your visit, your practitioner will stamp any medical forms required and provide you with a summary, a receipt, and any applicable educational material. The summary of your visit can be sent to your primary care provider with your permission.
