IT’S DIFFERENT. BECAUSE EVERY MAN’S BODY IS DIFFERENT
Health niggle bothering you?
Reached a milestone age you’d like to celebrate with candles and a check-up?
Want an idea of what’s in store for you?
All valid reasons to get that body of yours thoroughly checked out. After all, you think nothing of servicing your car. Why not a comprehensive once-over of you?
Your first port of call may be the NHS. A great option if you want a quick look under the bonnet and kick of the tyres. But the problem is, it’s designed to check out everybody not your particular body. Tick boxes, templates, standard lifestyle analyses, blah blah blah.
Oh, and if you’re over 40, certain things may get overlooked.
H3 HEALTH CHECK. – THERE’S NOTHING LIKE IT OUT THERE
Yeah, yeah, yeah, we would say that. But it’s true. You won’t find a better Health MOT on the market. It’s totally bespoke and built around your particular story.
- We only do tests or examinations that are genuinely useful.
- Tests that you need and which provide effective preventative health for the over 40’s.
- We deal with you as a rounded person, not one simple health concern.
- We treat your problem rather than just refer it on or bat it back to your GP.
- We’ll agree a plan of action and stick to it.
- All of our consultations are with a doctor who specialises in men’s health.
- You’ll get a comprehensive report to pore over.
Initial Consultation
A full 1 hour face to face (online, if preferred) with a specialist Men’s Health doctor. Going through your symptoms, past medical history, mental health, family history, risk factors, lifestyle, exercise and diet.
Physical examination
A full physical exam, urine dipstick, ECG (heart trace), and blood test tailored to your needs. Additional imaging (X-rays or other scans*) if required.
Blood Analysis
An accredited lab will fully analyse your bloods. Results received to H3 Health in 4-5 days. Online consultation? We’ll arrange a local clinic take your bloods (small additional cost).
Follow-up Consultation
With your H3 Health doctor. You’ll receive a detailed breakdown of the results and he’ll talk you through any recommendations. Put in a report and shared with you via our secure portal.
Treatment Path (if clinically appropriate)
We’ll offer a treatment plan or suggest further investigations (H3 Health will support you in arranging).
*Imaging such as ultrasound and CT scans are not included in the cost of a health check.
EVERYTHING FROM SEXUAL HEALTH TO CANCER
General wellness.
Niggles, worries, anything you want to discuss. Don’t be shy.
Mental health.
Depression, anxiety, stress. It’s such a big area and we’ll give you time to chat about it.
Cardiovascular health.
The biggest killer in men. So, we look at lifestyle factors, family history, symptoms, sleep, exercise diet and nutrition. We measure blood pressure, pulse, heart sound, perform an ECG, and carry out blood tests for cholesterol, testosterone, diabetes and pre-diabetes.
General health.
We’ll look at core health markers such as anaemia, immunity, kidney and liver function. And we’ll do it properly, investigating any underlying causes.
Prostate health and the renal system.
Checking urine for protein and blood for markers of kidney disease. We measure BP and test PSA and calcium levels. Not your standard PSA test, but a complete prostate and urinary system check-up.
Diabetes screening.
Not the old fashioned finger-prick blood test for glucose. We use an HBA1c blood test which can pick up early markers of diabetes years before you get symptoms.
And we go further. Type 2 diabetes is also an indicator of ‘metabolic syndrome’. Putting men at risk of stroke, heart attack, kidney disease, peripheral vascular disease, fatty liver disease, and other problems. So, we’ll assess for this, looking at cardiac risk, blood pressure, cholesterol, HBA1c, renal function, lifestyle, bodyweight, BMI, percentage fat, etc.
Male health.
This is our speciality. Low testosterone and erectile dysfunction. And we do it in a way that doesn’t make you feel uncomfortable.
Cancer.
No matter what health check you do, you cannot screen for all cancers. Even a ‘full body MRI’ would miss some. Instead, we screen for those we can look out for – prostate cancer and bowel cancer. Suggesting preventative measures to reduce the risk.
