Getting an annual exam can feel like a chore, but it’s the most important huddle of the year for your health! On this episode of STIRRUPS, Dr. Randolph Scott, Physician Assistant Katie Hume, and dually certified Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner and Certified Nurse Midwife Kerry Autry tackle the myths and misconceptions surrounding the annual well-woman exam. They discuss what to expect at every age, from the first teen visit to post-menopausal care, and clarify the evolving guidelines for screenings like pap smears and mammograms.

Tune in as they explain the crucial difference between screening and diagnostic testing and share why your annual visit is about more than just a pap smear. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who wants to take a proactive approach to their health and feel empowered in their wellness journey.

STIRRUPS is presented by Carolina Elite Women's Care and produced by Walk West.
