Why is screening so important?

The importance of health screening cannot be overstated, particularly in the realm of men’s health. Screening serves as a cornerstone of preventative care, facilitating the early detection of health issues and lifestyle-related risks. Unlike diagnostic tests, which are administered in response to symptoms, health screening targets asymptomatic individuals, unveiling underlying health disorders or risk factors. By embracing screening, individuals can bolster primary prevention efforts, safeguarding their health and anticipate future ailments. Despite its many benefits, uptake of health screening among men remains low, emphasising the need for greater awareness and education on its role in preventive healthcare.

Our general wellness tests require a sample, which could be a finger-prick or urine sample, which is added to a cassette, giving results within 5 – 10 minutes. The tests are extremely sensitive (over 92%) and are performed in our clinic setting. If results are outside the normal range, clients can seek further advice and present this information to their GP. Examples of our IVDs include tests for iron, vitamin B12, and PSA
