Well
person screening checks are an important part of your health maintenance
regime, along with exercise, a healthy diet and lifestyle. We aim
to detect medical problems which may cause you ill-health in the
future and which, if detected early on, can be modified. For most
patients, a well person screening would be of benefit every three
years.
Well
person screening checks are available for all age groups. The check
consists of 2 separate appointments: at the first, which lasts 45
minutes, the doctor will take a full history from you, examine you
thoroughly, and discuss with you which tests are appropriate for
you, bearing in mind your age, your health background, family background,
personal concerns and your budget. At the second appointment, some
2 weeks later, the doctor will discuss with you her written report,
which will include her assessment of your current and future health
problems, and recommendations about changes which need to be made.
You will take away both the written report and printed information
leaflets which are relevant to your health.
The
cost of the screening is fixed at £230.00 and includes both
appointments and the report. The costs of any tests recommended
are not included in this fee. We prefer this approach, as we treat
each patient as an individual and will only recommend the tests
we feel are appropriate in each case. The cost of many common tests
can be found on our Fees page.
We
hope this information is of interest, and we look forward to meeting
you for a well person screening in the near future. To make an appointment
please go to our appointments page
or if you have any queries please contact
us.
Please note: These are detailed check-ups requiring a considerable investment of time from both doctor and patient. Failure to attend with less than 24hrs notice will be charged at 50% of the appointment charge.
