Annual wellness visits (AWV) are an important part of an adult's healthy lifestyle. The purpose of an AWV is to develop and maintain a personalized prevention plan to help prevent disease and disability based on your current health and risk factors. Even if you do not have chronic illnesses, it is recommended to have an AWV to be proactive about your health. These visits differ from traditional office visits in which you may be seen for new or acute concerns. 

At 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday, October 11, you're invited to join the Ada Public Library for a special story time full of classic American folklore with guest reader Lauren Williams.
