What are Health Check-ups and Preventive Screenings?
Health check-ups and preventive screenings are comprehensive medical evaluations designed to maintain optimal health, detect diseases early, and prevent future health problems. These routine examinations include physical assessments, laboratory tests, and screenings tailored to your age, gender, and risk factors.
Early Detection: Regular preventive screenings can detect diseases 5-10 years earlier than symptoms appear, improving treatment outcomes by 80-90%.

- Ages 18-39: Blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes screening, cancer screenings as indicated
- Ages 40-49: Mammograms, colonoscopy baseline, cardiac risk assessment
