Health Checks
A key emphasis of general practice is providing 'check-ups' to the well person. The sole purpose being to identify problems in their early stages including high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, kidney disease, dementia, haemochromatosis, certain cancers and so on. Some diseases in their early stages give you no physical symptoms and generally speaking, early diagnosis will help ensure minimal harm.
If you would like to undergo a health check please enquire with our secretary.
Family history of illnesses such as heart disease and some cancers will prompt additional screening so if you are concerned that a family member developed a serious condition at an early age or if there is a cluster of a certain illness within your family then why not consult with one of the doctors and discuss your concerns.
