What is a Well Woman Health Check?

Our Well Woman Health Check is specifically designed for women, giving you the opportunity to discuss any women’s health concerns with an experienced doctor.

Our tailored blood and urine tests not only provide you with an indication of your overall health but also check for hormone imbalances, early signs of ovarian cancer, Vitamin D deficiency, causes of fatigue, diabetes and your overall risk of heart disease.

You’ll start by having an in-depth consultation with a female health screening doctor, followed by an appointment with a nurse.

After this appointment, you’ll then receive a detailed report, written by your health screening doctor. This will explain your test results in more detail and provide you with a complete understanding of your health, allowing you to address any health issues before they become a problem. If any serious medical issues are found, your health screening doctor will make sure that you are quickly referred to a specialist.

The cost of our Well Women Health Check in London starts at £545. However, the test may not be suitable for younger women, so our doctor will advise you on whether this is the right test for you based on your individual circumstances.

The cost our Well Man Woman Health Check in Essex is £495.
