What are the medical check-ups?
Check-ups are the programs for examination of whole body, prevention of diseases and their early detection. Each program includes a complete set of tests and studies to ensure that your health is OK.
How often should you visit a medical check-up clinic?
- People under 50 years should visit a check-up clinic once every 2-3 years to identify possible diseases at the initial stage.
- People over 50 should undergo health screening every year.
- People who are in the risk group (smokers, athletes, those who have relatives with inherited diseases, etc.) should be examined as often as a doctor determines. For these people, the health check medical centers offer advanced screening programs, including research aimed to detect a specific disease at early stages.
- People who have symptoms of unknown origin (shortness of breath, headache, frequent digestive disorders, etc.). A check-up will quickly determine where the cause of the problem is and assign a proper treatment.

Business people, who are going on an extended business trip, want to combine their work with health caring. They have no extra time, so medical check-up is the best option for them to undergo all necessary diagnostic procedures during a short time.
