Benefits of Personalised Health Screening

Personalised health screening offers a comprehensive evaluation of your health, tailored to your individual needs. It is particularly beneficial for:

  • Individuals with Non-Specific Symptoms

    Those experiencing issues like persistent fatigue, unexplained weight changes, or general discomfort can benefit from identifying potential underlying causes.

  • Establishing Baseline Health Data

    Adults looking to create a reference point for future health monitoring and comparisons can gain clarity and insight into their current status.

  • Managing Risk Factors

    Individuals with a family history of chronic conditions, inherited predispositions identified through genetic testing, or other health risks can proactively address potential concerns.

What Personalised Health Screening Involves

Medical History and Physical Examination

The process begins with a detailed review of your medical history and a physical examination, focusing on key health indicators, including:

  • Comprehensive Medical History Review: Includes past health issues, medications, surgeries, family medical history, and genetic testing to identify inherited risk factors and predispositions.
  • Examination of Lifestyle Factors: Considers diet, physical activity, sleep patterns, stress levels, and substance use, all necessary for overall health and disease risk.
  • Biometric Measurements: Biometric measurements such as blood pressure, cholesterol, blood glucose levels, BMI, and waist circumference assess cardiovascular and metabolic health.
  • Heart and Lung Assessment: Involves a stethoscope examination to detect irregular heart rhythms, murmurs, and breathing patterns, offering insights into heart and respiratory function.
  • Neurological Review: Includes tests for reflexes, muscle strength, coordination, and balance to evaluate the health of the nervous system.

Laboratory Tests and Screenings

Blood Tests

Selected based on your individual health profile, blood tests evaluate key health indicators such as blood cell counts, glucose levels, cholesterol, organ function, and hormone balance. These tests complement other components of the screening, providing a detailed health picture.

Urine Analysis

A urine analysis complements blood tests by screening for a variety of health conditions. It checks for infections, evaluates kidney health, and detects signs of diabetes, such as elevated glucose or protein levels in the urine. This test is often used as a key diagnostic tool for overall health monitoring.

Specialised Screenings

Specialised screenings are selected based on your individual risk factors and health concerns. These may include:

  • Electrocardiogram (ECG) measures electrical activity in the heart to detect abnormal rhythms or signs of cardiac conditions.
  • Spirometry assesses lung function by measuring airflow and volume, helping to identify respiratory issues such as asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
  • Bone density scans evaluate bone strength and identify risks of osteoporosis, especially in older adults or those with certain risk factors.
  • Cancer screenings include tests like mammograms, colonoscopies, or prostate-specific antigen (PSA) tests, tailored to your age, gender, and family history to support early detection and intervention.

The Consultation Process

A personalised consultation offers an in-depth discussion of your screening results. During this session, the doctor reviews your family medical history to identify hereditary risks, evaluates your current medications and supplements, and assesses lifestyle habits such as diet, exercise, and sleep patterns for their impact on your health.

Any past medical procedures or hospitalisations are also considered. By integrating this information with your test results, the doctor provides tailored insights and recommendations to support your health and well-being.

Preparing for Your Screening

Proper preparation helps you gain the most from your health screening. Consider the following steps to ensure a smooth and effective process:

  • Gather Medical Records

    Bring previous test results, vaccination records, and any relevant reports from other healthcare providers to provide a comprehensive view of your medical history.

  • List Medications and Supplements

    Prepare a detailed list of all current medications, including supplements and over-the-counter products, along with their dosages.

  • Document Symptoms or Concerns

    Note any health changes, symptoms, or concerns you wish to discuss, including their duration and any factors that affect them.

  • Follow Fasting Instructions

    Some blood tests require fasting for 8–12 hours. Ensure you follow the specific guidelines provided when booking your appointment to achieve accurate results.

Being well-prepared allows your physician to conduct a thorough evaluation and offer tailored recommendations based on your complete health profile.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the difference between general health screening and personalised health screening?

General health screening involves standardised tests aimed at identifying common conditions across a broad population. Personalised health screening is tailored to your medical history, lifestyle, and risk factors, ensuring that the tests and evaluations are directly relevant to your individual health needs.

How often should I have a personalised health screening?

The recommended frequency depends on factors such as age, health status, and personal risk factors. For most adults, a screening every 1–2 years is beneficial, while those with existing conditions or higher risks may need more frequent assessments.

Do I need to stop taking my medications before a health screening?

In most cases, you should continue taking your prescribed medications as usual. However, certain tests may require temporary adjustments to your medication schedule. Inform your doctor about all medications and supplements you are taking, and they will advise you on any necessary changes.
