Diagnosis & Evaluation
The check-up begins with registration, a health questionnaire and vital signs (blood pressure, height, weight, BMI and waist size). Tests are then completed in a planned sequence so that the whole package is usually finished in 6–8 hours.
| Test | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Complete Blood Count (CBC) | Detects anaemia, infection and blood disorders |
| Fasting glucose and HbA1c | Screens for diabetes and prediabetes |
| Lipid profile | Assesses cholesterol and heart risk |
| Liver and kidney function tests | Check organ health |
| Thyroid profile | Detects underactive or overactive thyroid |
| ECG, echocardiogram, TMT | Evaluate heart rhythm, structure and exercise capacity |
| Ultrasound abdomen and chest X-ray | Look for fatty liver, stones, cysts and lung problems |
| PSA / mammography / Pap smear | Age- and gender-specific cancer screening |
Fasting of 8–10 hours is needed before the blood tests. Most reports are ready the same day or within 24 hours.

Risks & Possible Side Effects
A check-up carries very little risk. Points to keep in mind:
- Blood tests — mild discomfort or bruising at the needle site
- Treadmill test — brief tiredness; the test is supervised and stopped if any symptoms appear
- X-rays — a very small dose of radiation
- Incidental findings — some results may need further tests to confirm they are harmless
Your care team will explain the benefits and risks of each option before starting treatment.
