Health Check Up

...that a person can have health issues, sometimes serious issues, that either haven’t been noticed by that person, or the person has noticed symptoms that “aren’t quite right” but hasn’t yet had the diagnosis and treatment they need. Sometimes these issues aren’t detectable without clinical testing, and if picked up early, can be managed before they become harder to treat.

Think of your body like a car, which needs to get regular checks to keep running smoothly. Just like you get your tyre pressures & fluid levels checked, so does your body need regular checks. Doing so can help pick up issues and fix them before you end up with a car that breaks down and could be very costly to repair. The human body has its own set of things to measure and problems to watch out for, before they become difficult or impossible to repair. If a car struggles to run well after 10 – 15 years without a servicing, how is your body going to make it another 40, 50, 60 years without some detailed attention?

By getting a comprehensive Health Check, your GP can fully measure, assess and diagnose your current state of health. They can tell you how well your body is doing, what personalized risks are relevant to your future health, and what can be done now to optimize your health – including any conditions you might not even realise you might have.
