• Electrocardiogram (EKG): For peace of mind and early detection of heart disease, schedule an EKG. This non-invasive test can identify problems before you experience any symptoms.
• Appendectomy: While not a routine screening, an appendectomy, when needed, removes the inflamed appendix to prevent serious consequences.
