What is a "Health
Check" ?
E-Med can refer you for a comprehensive assessment of your health and well being.
Health Checks are customised to suit your family history and lifestyle.
e.g. if you are a smoker who enjoys diving,
the health check will focus on lung function.
e.g. if you have a family history of heart
attack and you have a stressful occupation,
we can arrange for the referral to include a complete review of cardiac
function.
Why do people have an
Annual Health Check?
Not only does it highlight any problem areas,
but it also enables the doctor to practice preventative
medicine.
