School and Sports Physicals in Queen Creek and Scottsdale, AZ

School and sports physicals, also known as pre-participation physical exams (PPE), play an important role in ensuring that children and teens are physically prepared to engage in physical activities inside and outside school. At Younger Medical Health and Wellness in Queen Creek and Scottsdale, AZ, we understand the importance of staying active while prioritizing health and safety. That's why we offer comprehensive school and sports physicals for students from grade school through their senior year. Whether your child needs a pediatric physical exam for school or a physical for sports, we are here to help you prepare them for the upcoming season. If you live in Queen Creek, Scottsdale, or the surrounding areas, schedule an appointment with us today.

A school health physical or sports physical is not as detailed as an annual physical, but it serves a very specific purpose: ensuring your child is fit for athletic activities. During the appointment, one of our skilled team members will focus on reviewing your child's medical history and evaluating their physical fitness level as it pertains to sports. This includes discussing any previous injuries, like concussions or sprains, and addressing chronic conditions, such as asthma, diabetes, or other health concerns, that could impact their ability to safely participate in sports. The goal of the school physical is to make sure that your child is physically able to take part in school or extracurricular sports activities. After reviewing their health and medical history, we can determine if any precautions or further steps are necessary before they engage in strenuous physical activity.

What to Expect After School and Sports Physicals

Once your child’s school or sports physical is completed at our Queen Creek, AZ or Scottsdale, AZ location, we'll review the results together with you. You can expect clear, easy-to-understand guidance on any next steps, whether that means scheduling additional testing, arranging follow-up care, or making recommendations for performance, nutrition, or injury prevention. We'll send home all completed forms so you're ready to go for school or team requirements. If there are any concerns—like elevated blood pressure, asthma, or past injuries—we’ll explain what they mean in everyday language and how to manage them going forward. Our focus is on helping you understand the outcome and feel confident as your child heads back to class or the field.

At Younger Medical Health and Wellness, we offer school and sports physicals that not only allow children to participate in extracurricular activities but also provide valuable insights into their overall health. These physicals offer several benefits for both parents and their children, including:

  • Identifying any underlying medical conditions or chronic illnesses that may need attention
  • Verifying that a child is physically fit and healthy enough for demanding physical activities
  • Detecting potential risk factors that could raise the chance of injury during the sports season
  • Offering recommendations for treatment or management if any issues are identified
  • Providing peace of mind for parents, knowing their child's health has been thoroughly evaluated

By offering sports and annual school physicals, we help prepare your child for the sports field, marching band, or other physically demanding activities in a way that supports their health and safety.

Dr Young has a wonderful manner. I don’t feel rushed and I believe he genuinely cares about my wellbeing. My only negative is the lack of a smile or a pleasant well coming from the front desk person. It would be nice to be greeted in a friendly fashion.

Any child or teen planning to participate in school or extracurricular sports activities should have a school or sports physical. These exams are often required by schools or athletic organizations to assess a child’s physical health and safety before joining a team or activity. Students from kindergarten through high school seniors can benefit from these physicals—especially those involved in competitive sports like soccer, basketball, track, or swimming. Kids participating in physically demanding activities such as dance, cheerleading, or marching band may also need a physical to confirm they’re fit to perform. If your child falls into any of these categories, a school health physical or pediatric physical exam is an essential step in supporting their well-being during active participation.

What should we bring to the school or sports physical appointment?

Be sure to bring any required forms provided by your child’s school or sports league, a list of current medications, and any relevant medical records or immunization history. If your child wears glasses, hearing aids, or braces, it's helpful to bring those items or their documentation as well.

What if my child doesn’t pass the physical?

If any issues are detected, we will explain the findings and help you take the next steps, whether that means a follow-up visit, treatment, or a referral to a specialist. The goal is to support your child’s health while working toward safe participation in school or sports.

How far in advance should I schedule a physical?

We recommend booking your child’s physical at least a few weeks before the start of school or the sports season. This gives enough time to complete forms and handle any health concerns that may come up during the exam.

Whether your child is joining a sports team, preparing for a school activity, or simply needing an annual physical, school and sports physicals play a crucial role in supporting their safety. These exams help protect them from injuries and potential health issues as they participate in physically demanding activities. If you're in need of a school physical or a sports physical in Queen Creek or Scottsdale, AZ, contact Younger Medical Health and Wellness to schedule an appointment today. Let us help your child get prepared, stay healthy, and be ready for the upcoming season.
