An executive physical is a long checkup led by a physician, usually compressed into one or two days. It bundles an exam and bloodwork, and often imaging, heart and fitness tests, into a single visit.
What is included varies widely, so the name tells you the format rather than the contents. Ask what is in it, which screenings you are already due for, and who follows up on the results.
