Health Check
A growing awareness of healthcare issues is leading more people
than ever to have regular screening.
However, it is recognised that the NHS cannot satisfy everyone’s
aspirations for healthcare. At New Hall we provide you with choices
that would not otherwise be so readily available; care that forms
an essential part of your plans to keep fit and healthy.
Periodic health screening enables people to take control of
their lives and identify many potential health problems sooner than
would otherwise be the case. Equally important, however, health
screening puts many peoples’ minds at rest especially when they
have been anxious over a specific health problem.
Where there is a history of family illness, or where there is
concern for the health of a relative or partner, a health screen is
a sensible course of action. Furthermore, as the stresses and
strains of modern living take their toll, the results of a health
screen can be vital in indicating where an individual needs to
change their lifestyle before serious problems arise.
Health Check Screening Services
For complete peace of mind we offer a fully comprehensive
screening service. An initial assessment is carried out by an
experienced nursing professional and this is followed by an
extensive consultation and examination with our health screening
doctor.
You will be seen by a female doctor. A separate report along
with test results is then sent to both you, and your GP if you so
wish, within ten working days.
A fully comprehensive health screen, lasting one and a half
hours, designed to address all aspects of female or male health
includes:
- Medical and family history
