An executive physical is a comprehensive, physician-led health evaluation designed to go beyond a routine annual checkup. At My Concierge MD, David Nazarian, MD personally reviews the patientโs history, risk factors, current concerns, laboratory data, diagnostic testing, and preventive priorities to create an individualized health plan.
For busy executives and professionals, the goal is to bring a broad health assessment into one coordinated process, reduce fragmented appointments, identify important risks earlier, and finish with a clear physician discussion about what the results mean and what should happen next. When clinically indicated, follow-up may include specialized hormone evaluation, sleep apnea testing, or physician-supervised medical weight management.
Choose Your Executive Health Program
Not every patient needs the same level of testing. My Concierge MD offers three executive health programs so the evaluation can be matched to your age, medical history, family history, risk factors, goals, and desired level of preventive assessment. Final testing is individualized after physician review.
Executive Essential
A comprehensive preventive baseline.
Designed for patients who want a physician-led health assessment with core preventive screening, laboratory evaluation, physical examination, and an individualized prevention plan.
Best for: Healthy adults who want a thorough baseline or an enhanced annual evaluation.
Executive Comprehensive
A deeper, coordinated executive evaluation.
Adds broader cardiovascular, metabolic, imaging, pulmonary, body-composition, and other diagnostic testing when appropriate, with physician interpretation of the results as one integrated assessment.
Best for: Busy professionals who want a more comprehensive evaluation coordinated through one practice.

Program names describe the level of evaluation, not a promise that every test is appropriate for every patient. Testing is selected according to clinical history, age, symptoms, family history, prior results, and physician judgment.
What May Be Included in an Executive Physical?
The exact evaluation is personalized. Depending on age, history, symptoms, family history, prior testing, and clinical need, an executive health assessment may include:
- Comprehensive medical history and physician consultation
- Physical examination and vital signs
- Extensive laboratory testing
- Cardiovascular risk assessment
- Electrocardiogram and additional cardiac testing when appropriate
- Body composition and bone-health assessment when indicated
- Metabolic and diabetes risk evaluation
- Hormone or thyroid testing when clinically appropriate
- Pulmonary testing when indicated
- Ultrasound or other imaging when appropriate
- Age- and risk-appropriate cancer screening review
- Medication, supplement, sleep, nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle review
Executive Physical vs. Annual Physical
A routine annual physical generally focuses on preventive screening, medical history, examination, and standard laboratory testing. An executive physical is designed to be more comprehensive and coordinated, with additional testing selected according to the patientโs individual risk profile. More testing is not automatically better; the purpose is to choose testing that is medically appropriate and likely to change management.
Advanced Diagnostics in One Coordinated Program
My Concierge MD offers access to a range of advanced diagnostic services, including laboratory blood work, cardiovascular and vascular testing, ultrasound, and pulmonary testing. When additional outside imaging or specialist evaluation is appropriate, the practice can help coordinate that next step.
The Physician Review Is the Most Important Part
What patients receive: An executive health assessment should translate findings into priorities: which results are reassuring, which warrant follow-up, what screening is appropriate, and what can be improved through evidence-based prevention. Dr. David Nazarian is board-certified in internal medicine. Patients who want ongoing follow-up can also explore concierge medicine or longevity-focused care. Testing and follow-up are individualized rather than guaranteed as part of every package.
Executive testing is most useful when the results are interpreted together rather than viewed as isolated numbers. Dr. Nazarian reviews findings in the context of the patientโs history, medications, family history, symptoms, prior results, and goals. The visit should end with an understandable plan, not simply a collection of reports.
โAn executive physical should end with a conversation, not a portal login. The value is understanding what your results actually mean for the next year.โ โ David Nazarian, MD
Executive Health as a Long-Term Strategy
Many patients use the executive physical as an annual baseline and combine it with concierge medicine for ongoing care. For patients interested in longitudinal tracking, Continuous Longevity Intelligence is designed to organize health data and trends over time under physician oversight.
Who May Benefit From an Executive Physical?
Executive health evaluations are commonly chosen by business leaders, entrepreneurs, physicians, attorneys, entertainment professionals, frequent travelers, and other individuals who want a coordinated, high-touch preventive health assessment. They can also be useful for patients with significant family history or multiple risk factors who want a comprehensive review with one physician overseeing the process.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does an executive physical take?
The time required depends on the testing included. The program is coordinated to reduce unnecessary separate appointments, but some imaging or specialty testing may occur at another time or location.
Is every executive physical the same?
No. Testing should be individualized based on medical history, age, risk factors, symptoms, family history, and previous results.
Can an executive physical detect every disease?
No. No screening program can identify every disease, and unnecessary testing can create false positives or lead to procedures that do not improve health. Testing is selected based on clinical judgment and established risk factors.
What happens after the testing is completed?
Dr. Nazarian reviews the findings and discusses priorities, follow-up testing, lifestyle changes, medication considerations, specialist referrals, and preventive recommendations when appropriate.
