What is health screening for?
Health screenings allow you to detect any particular underlying condition or disease in us where we often feel or look well because certain health conditions do not exhibit any signs or symptoms in the early stages. We provide a comprehensive range of health screening services and package that cover all your health and medical needs. Throug health screening, we aim to help you better understand and manage your overall health.
After your health screening, our doctors will go through a personalised medical report, make suitable recommendations, and work with you towards a healthy life. Choose from our wide range of Health Screening packages that best meets your needs.
Regular health screening is important in order to keep us in the pink of health and it is different from those ordered diagnostic tests directly by your family doctor, GP or a Specialist for someone who is already showing symptoms or signs of a condition.
Preparation prior to Your health screening
- We will inform you if you need to fast for your screening tests. If fasting is required, you will need to stop eating by 12 midnight the night before your appointment and drink only plain water on an as-needed basis.
- If you have gone through previous health screening tests and received abnormal results, please bring these reports along on the day of your appointment.
- Set aside half a day minimally for your tests (exact duration depends on the package selected)
- For stool analysis, a specimen bottle will be provided on the day of the test. Alternatively, you may collect the specimen bottle from our clinic prior to the appointment and collect your stools the night before.
- For women doing a pap smear or pelvic examination, it is best to schedule it 5 days before or after menstruation for accurate results.
- If taking the treadmill stress test, please bring along jogging shoes and comfortable clothes. Bring along any past medical records (doctor’s memo/X-ray films/ECG/medical report) or medications, if any.
- Diabetic medication should not be taken on the morning of your screening appointment. Regular high blood pressure and heart medication can be continued.
Please call our customer service for any queries or seek clarification if you are unsure of what to prepare for.
