It's important to monitor your health. Establishing your baseline or "normal" reading for various health aspects makes it easier to see when there is a change that might require some additional tests.
The first step is to talk to your primary care physician. He or she can help you determine what screenings you need — talking about your risk factors, discussing the risks and benefits of screening, ordering laboratory tests and referring you to specialists if needed. If you do not have a primary care physician, call 414-777-7700. You can also view video profiles of primary care physicians.
Here are just a few of the screenings we offer. You can also check our calendar for special screening events.

Your Froedtert & MCW Primary Care Team
At the Froedtert & MCW health network, your primary care is delivered by a team working together to support your health.
- Doctors (physicians) lead your care and manage both routine and complex health needs. They diagnose conditions, create care plans, manage chronic illnesses and coordinate specialty care when needed.
- Advanced practice providers (APPs) — including nurse practitioners and physician assistants — provide many of the same day-to-day services. They offer preventive care, treat common illnesses, manage stable conditions and help answer your health questions.
Working Together for You
Your care team communicates and collaborates to make sure you get the right care at the right time. You may see different members of the team for different visits, but they work together behind the scenes to ensure seamless, high-quality care. This team-based approach helps improve access to appointments, gives you more time with your doctor or clinician and supports better long-term health.
