History

EHE International was established in 1913 as the first medical center specializing in the early detection of life-threatening disease through annual physical examination and the promotion of healthy lifestyle choices, and behavior as the best means to safeguarding future health.

Our continued commitment to that philosophy has made EHE International America's oldest and largest preventive health company, and the preferred choice in employer-sponsored prevention and wellness programs.

Historical Fact
