June Is Men's Health Month

It’s Men’s Health Month — a month dedicated to increasing awareness about men’s health issues. Did you know that men, on average, die almost five years earlier than women? Part of the reason is that men are more reluctant to go to the doctor. Yearly checkups help detect and treat diseases earlier, which promotes a better quality of life.

The Importance of Establishing Care with a Primary Care Physician

A Primary Care Physician (PCP) manages your day-to-day health needs and leads your care.

The time to establish care with a PCP is before you get sick. Watch this video with Viva Health’s Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Tara Bryant, and learn more about the importance of building a relationship with a PCP.
