Health screening is a valuable tool for assessing your health, offering reassurance or identifying potential health issues. We emphasise interpreting screening results within the context of each patient’s unique circumstances, as results alone can be misleading without personalised analysis.

Comprehensive Health Screening at Edinburgh GP Clinic.

Most of our patients are in good health, and our doctors are deeply committed to health promotion and performance coaching. Our standard health screening package includes up to 90 minutes of face-to-face time with a doctor, part of which can be dedicated to lifestyle coaching if necessary.

We understand the benefits of continuity of care, building relationships, and observing trends over successive screenings. A health screen at our clinic is an excellent starting point, providing us with a comprehensive snapshot of your health and enhancing our ability to care for you in future consultations.

Our Unique Modular Approach to Health Screening:
We recognise that everyone’s health needs are different. We adopt a modular approach to health screening, customising it to fit each client’s specific requirements.

The Core Health Screen Includes:
- 90 minutes with a doctor:
- 15-minute preliminary appointment for goal setting and test sampling
- 75-minute session to discuss results and complete the assessment
- Full physical examination tailored to age and sex
- Lifestyle assessment and family history review to assess disease risk
- Medical history review
- Resting electrocardiogram (ECG)
- Risk calculations for cardiovascular diseases and diabetes
- Audiogram and spirometry tests as needed
- Comprehensive blood testing, including full profiles for:
- Haematology
- Lipids
- Electrolytes
- Muscle damage
- Inflammation
- Bone metabolism
- Liver function
- Iron storage
- Thyroid function
- Specific tests like prostate-specific antigen and diabetes screening, including HBA1C and glucose levels
- Urinalysis and grip strength monitoring

Optional additional tests available upon initial consultation (additional costs may apply)

All results are discussed in detail during your consultation and compiled in a personalised report. If necessary, we can also facilitate a transition back to NHS care, ensuring you receive the most appropriate treatment.
