Physical Exams Services for Burbank Residents
Burbank is a dynamic city of creators, aviation professionals, healthcare workers, and families. Whether you need an annual physical to stay ahead of your health, a sports physical for your student athlete, or a DOT physical to maintain your commercial driver’s license, Valley Family Medicine is your trusted urgent care partner. Based in San Fernando, we proudly extend our comprehensive Physical Exams Services to the Burbank community. We offer walk‑in physicals with no appointment necessary—annual wellness checks, school and sports physicals, pre‑employment exams, DMV senior physicals, and more. Call us at 818-774-0955 or visit our clinic for same‑day, thorough physicals.
Our annual adult physical is a cornerstone of preventive health. We begin with a detailed medical and family history, reviewing chronic conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, heart disease, thyroid disorders, asthma, and arthritis. We discuss lifestyle factors including diet, exercise, sleep, stress, tobacco, alcohol, and occupational exposures relevant to Burbank’s entertainment and aerospace industries. Vital signs—blood pressure, pulse, temperature, respiratory rate, and oxygen saturation—are measured. A complete head‑to‑toe physical exam follows: cardiac auscultation for murmurs or arrhythmias, lung assessment for wheezes or crackles, abdominal palpation for tenderness or masses, neurological screening (reflexes, coordination, balance), skin inspection for suspicious moles or lesions, and examination of eyes, ears, nose, and throat. Vision and hearing screening are included. Based on your age, gender, and risk factors, we order appropriate lab work: complete blood count, comprehensive metabolic panel, lipid panel (total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglycerides), thyroid‑stimulating hormone (TSH), hemoglobin A1c (diabetes screening), vitamin D, and urinalysis. For women, we coordinate Pap smears and breast exams; for men, we discuss prostate health. We administer immunizations (flu, Tdap, shingles, pneumonia, HPV, hepatitis B) and provide preventive counseling on weight management, blood pressure control, heart health, nutrition, stress reduction, and smoking cessation.
Burbank students—from elementary through college—rely on us for sports physicals (pre‑participation exams) required by schools, clubs, and youth leagues. Our focused exam evaluates cardiac health (murmurs, arrhythmias), musculoskeletal integrity (joint stability, range of motion, strength, flexibility), and neurological safety (concussion history, vision). We also provide school entry physicals, camp physicals, and college physicals with same‑day completion forms.
Employers in Burbank trust us for pre‑employment physicals to ensure candidates can safely perform job duties—whether on a film set, in an office, or on a warehouse floor—and return‑to‑work physicals after injury or illness. We are a certified site for DOT physicals for commercial drivers, following FMCSA guidelines: vision (20/40 or better in each eye), hearing (forced whisper at 5 feet), blood pressure (≤140/90), urinalysis for protein, glucose, and blood, and review of sleep apnea, diabetes, heart disease, and medications.
We also perform DMV senior driver physicals, foster care and adoption physicals, life insurance physicals, and executive wellness exams. Each exam includes clear documentation and a signed certificate provided the same day. Most physicals take under 45 minutes.
