Who It May Help
- You're starting a new job and need a pre-employment physical before your first day
- Your employer requires an annual or periodic occupational health exam
- You're returning to work after an illness, injury, or medical leave
- You need clearance for a physically demanding or safety-sensitive role

What a Work Physical Typically Includes
A standard work physical at Modern Human MD may include a review of your medical history, vital signs, vision and hearing screening, cardiovascular and respiratory assessment, musculoskeletal evaluation, and any additional components required by your employer or industry. For roles with specific regulatory requirements — such as commercial drivers or safety-sensitive positions — Dr. Tran will ensure the exam meets those standards precisely. If anything of note comes up during your visit, she'll discuss it with you directly and help you understand your next steps.
More Than a Checkbox
A work physical is often a rare moment when someone actually takes stock of their health. Dr. Tran sees that as an opportunity. If your blood pressure is elevated, your weight has shifted, or you mention symptoms you've been putting off addressing, she won't just note it and move on. You'll leave with the documentation your employer needs — and, if appropriate, a clearer picture of your health and any next steps worth considering. This is concierge medicine, which means your visit is about you, not just your paperwork.
