Description

A medical examination that evaluates general health and wellbeing, often referred to simply as a "physical" or "checkup". It is usually administered by a doctor. Typically involves checking heart rate (via a stethoscope), respiration, and blood pressure. Patients are usually required to go shirtless or topless to facilitate the heartrate and respiration exams, though they are not usually required to go completely nude unless a skin examination is also conducted.
