Preventative Care

Acute Care

At Vitae Family Care Clinic we recognise that men play a crucial role in creating healthy families. We believe in providing comprehensive care that addresses the unique needs of men throughout their lives. Your role as a father matters. You are a source of strength, guidance, and love for your family. We are here to support you as you fulfill that role. 

Services We Provide:

Preventative Care

Annual preventative care is vital to disease detection and prevention. It is recommended to make an appointment on a yearly basis for a well-man exam. The following will be included with your exam:

  • Physical Exam and History
  • Testicular Exam
  • Fasting Labs (if indicated)
  • Prostate Evaluation
    • Annual PSA lab evaluation recommended at Age 45 if high-risk (personal history of cancer or prostate cancer in first-degree relative)
    • Annual PSA lab evaluation recommended at Age 50 if average-risk
    • Annual Prostate Exam starting at Age 50
  • Colonoscopy
    • Recommended at Age 45

NaPro Technology

Fertility is often thought of as a women’s health issue, but approximately one-third of infertility cases are caused by male reproductive health issues. NaPro Technology acknowledges this, and we include evaluation of the man when approaching infertility. Dr. McKernan and Dr. Schwab will order a Seminal Fluid Analysis to be completed at home, in a way that does not violate one’s religious or moral beliefs. This form of testing requires the sample to be collected and delivered to the lab within 30 minutes of collection. NaPro Technology looks at total count, morphology, and motility to calculate an effective sperm count. If abnormalities are found with this testing, NaPro Technology offers treatments to improve sperm count and sperm motility. Our physicians will also review lifestyle modifications and supplements that can be beneficial.

Low Testosterone

Did you know that testosterone supplementation can impact your fertility? Vitae Family Care Clinic offers an alternative treatment to synthetic testosterone treatments that are commonly prescribed. We can treat the common low testosterone symptoms with a cooperative, bioidentical, fertility-sparing medication. Give us a call to schedule a consult with one of our physicians to learn more about this.

Family Medicine

We want to be your first line of defense when something unexpected happens. When a health issue or concern comes up and you aren’t sure what to do, give us a call to help. We know that you and your family depend on each other, and we want to help you take care of the people you love the most. Our team is here to advocate for and guide your family in making healthy life choices!
