What's involved with a health check?

Your appointment will take between 1 - 2 hours depending on which service you choose.

When you arrive, you will have already had your bloods taken and completed our lifestyle and health questionnaire. You will then spend approximately half an hour with your doctor discussing:

• Current state of health
• Past history
• Family history
• Nutritional intake
• Activity level
• Medications (including any supplements you take)
• Any specific health concerns you may have

The physical examination

Our doctors will examine your neck, heart, chest, abdomen and groin (in men), lower limbs and skin. You will also have your height, weight, waist circumference, body fat percentage and blood pressure measured. Many patients opt to have their other checks and tests done at this time ie PAP, Prostate, breast or other.

The stress test

We ask you to perform a stress test so we can assess:

• Blood pressure response to exercise
• Level of fitness
• Evidence of narrowed coronary arteries and also
• Evidence of heart rhythm disturbance during peak exercise

Reviewing the results and provision of a full results report

After the initial consultation, physical examination and stress test, our doctors will review the results with you in detail. We will:

• Review your blood test results and explain what they mean
• Educate you on how your results compare to the established targets based on internationally agreed expert opinion
• Formulate a management plan, if necessary, to further improve and optimise your health
• Prepare a full results report profiling your coronary risk and overall results and statistics

Ongoing care (on an ‘as needs’ basis)

If there are any health concerns identified during the consultation, we will take pro-active measures to address them. Where appropriate we will refer you to appropriate specialists and oversee the management of any major health issues identified.
