Health Screening & Medical Check-Up Centre in Johor

What is a Medical Check-Up or Health Screening?

A medical check-up or health screening is a thorough assessment of your health, involving tests like blood work, imaging (X-rays, ultrasounds), and physical exams. The goal is to detect potential issues early, assess your risk for certain conditions, and help maintain your overall well-being.

Why is Regular Health Screening Important?

Regular screenings help catch health problems early, enabling timely intervention. Early detection of diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, or cancer increases the chances of effective treatment and better long-term health.

Avoid Smoking & Alcohol: Refrain from smoking or drinking alcohol for at least 8 hours before your appointment.
Medications: Continue regular medications (except diabetes medication) but consult your doctor for any blood thinners.
Specific Tests:
