Full Medical Check-Ups

A full medical check-up is one of the best ways to understand your overall health, detect early warning signs, and prevent future illness. 

At EveryMed General Practice in East London, we offer comprehensive health assessments for adults and families, tailored to your age, lifestyle, and medical history.

What Is a Full Medical Check-Up?

A full medical check-up is a detailed health assessment performed by your GP to evaluate your physical health, identify risk factors, and screen for early signs of chronic or acute conditions. 

It is recommended at least once a year, even if you feel healthy.

This proactive approach helps catch problems early when treatment is most effective.

Who Should Get a Medical Check-Up?

A full medical examination is recommended for:

  • Adults over the age of 18
  • Individuals with chronic conditions
  • People with a family history of medical problems
  • Anyone who hasn’t had a GP check-up in over a year
  • Patients starting a new job or requiring medical clearance
  • Individuals wanting a baseline view of their health

Regular check-ups ensure you stay in control of your health long-term.

What’s Included in a Full Medical Check-Up?

At EveryMed, your complete health assessment may include:

1. Medical History Review

Your GP will assess:

  • Past illnesses or surgeries
  • Family medical history
  • Current symptoms
  • Lifestyle factors (diet, exercise, smoking, alcohol use)
  • Medication use

This helps identify your personal risk factors.

2. Physical Examination

A thorough head-to-toe examination including:

  • Blood pressure check
  • Heart and lung assessment
  • Weight, BMI and vital signs
  • Abdominal and neurological evaluation
  • Skin, eyes and ENT assessment

The goal is to detect early abnormalities.

3. Blood & Lab Tests

Depending on your needs, we may recommend:

  • Full blood count (FBC)
  • Cholesterol and lipid profile
  • Blood sugar (glucose/HbA1c)
  • Kidney and liver function
  • Thyroid tests
  • Iron studies
  • Vitamin levels

These tests give a deeper look into your internal health.

4. Additional Screening (If Needed)

Your doctor may recommend:

  • ECG (heart test)
  • Urine analysis
  • Pap smear
  • STD screening
  • Lung function testing
  • Imaging referrals (X-ray/ultrasound)

Screening is tailored to your age and risk profile.

Benefits of Regular Health Check-Ups

A full check-up helps:

  • Detect diseases early
  • Prevent chronic illnesses
  • Monitor existing health conditions
  • Improve overall well-being
  • Reduce healthcare costs long-term
  • Promote a healthier lifestyle

Prevention is always better than cure.

How Often Should You Have a Check-Up?

  • Once a year for healthy adults
  • More frequently for individuals with chronic health conditions
  • Before major life changes, such as pregnancy or intense physical activity
  • As recommended by your GP

When to See a Doctor for a Full Check-Up

  • You haven’t had a check-up in the last 12 months
