Complete Health Screening in London

The best time to find a health problem is before it causes symptoms. By then, intervention is simpler, outcomes are better, and suffering is prevented.

Health screening is healthcare at its most proactive. Instead of waiting until something goes wrong, you check that everything is going right.

Why Screen When You Feel Fine

Many serious conditions develop silently for years before causing noticeable symptoms.

High blood pressure causes no symptoms until it causes heart attacks or strokes. You cannot feel it. Only measurement detects it.

Type 2 diabetes can be present for years before the obvious symptoms emerge. By then, damage to kidneys, eyes, and nerves may have already begun.

High cholesterol feels like nothing. You discover it through blood tests, not through sensation.

Early cancers often cause no symptoms. Detecting them early dramatically improves survival rates.

Waiting for symptoms means waiting until damage has occurred. Screening catches these conditions at the stage where intervention is most effective.

What Comprehensive Health Screening Includes

Our executive health screening provides a thorough assessment of your current health status.

Blood tests form the foundation. Full blood count reveals your overall blood health, checking for anaemia, infection signs, and blood cell abnormalities. Kidney function shows how well your kidneys are clearing waste. Liver function indicates liver health and can reveal problems from alcohol, medications, or disease. Blood glucose and HbA1c screen for diabetes and prediabetes. Lipid profile measures cholesterol and triglycerides that affect heart disease risk. Thyroid function checks your metabolic regulator. Vitamins including B12, D, and folate that affect energy and wellbeing. Iron studies if there are concerns about iron deficiency or overload.

Advanced panels can include hormone profiles, inflammatory markers, cancer markers, and more specialised tests based on your individual risk factors and interests.

Lifestyle Assessment

Numbers only tell part of the story. Your lifestyle affects your health trajectory profoundly.

Exercise assessment considers current activity and realistic goals.

Sleep quality affects everything from mood to metabolism.

Stress levels and coping mechanisms affect both mental and physical health.

Alcohol and smoking assessment with supportive discussion of changes if desired.

Results Consultation

Raw numbers mean little without interpretation. Your results consultation explains what everything means.

We review each result in context. What does this number mean. How does it compare to normal ranges. How does it compare to your previous results if you have them.

Any concerns are discussed thoroughly. What might be causing an abnormal result. What further investigation is needed. What treatment options exist.

A clear plan emerges from the consultation. Continue current lifestyle. Make specific changes. Further tests. Referral for specialist input. Treatment initiation.

How Often to Screen

For most adults, annual comprehensive screening provides good preventative coverage.

Younger adults with no risk factors might screen every two years.

Those with identified risks or borderline results might screen more frequently.

Your screening results help determine appropriate follow up frequency.

What Happens If Something Is Found

Screening exists to find things. Sometimes it does.

Most findings are minor. Slightly elevated cholesterol requiring dietary attention. Vitamin D deficiency needing supplementation. Blood pressure on the higher side of normal requiring monitoring.

Some findings need further investigation. A borderline result requiring repeat testing. A finding suggesting specialist input would be valuable.

Occasionally findings are significant. But finding them through screening generally means finding them early, when intervention is most effective.

Whatever is found, we discuss it thoroughly, explain the implications, and create a clear plan for addressing it.
