Prevention is better than cure. Improving your healthspan and lifespan by picking things up early and using the latest evidence-based medicine is the way we care for our patients and clients.
We screen for all disease including heart disease, early cancers, inflammatory conditions and vitamin and mineral deficiencies that can lead to disease. These health assessments can be specifically tailored to you at the pre-assessment questionnaire stage and are dependent on age, sex and risk factors.
We believe in bespoke personalised care and concierge medicine. As general practitioners and not solely health screening doctors, if we find something wrong, we can offer a comprehensive service which means you can go directly to the best specialist without having to go via your NHS GP who may not have the network we have to make this referral.

What Our Clients Say
Dr Sophia is professional, knowledgeable and charming. The results are that a number of preventative measures have been identified which are being undertaken and I can only say it has been worth all the effort to have this done.”
We offer seven Preventative Health Assessments, all of which include a pre-assessment questionnaire to fill in which covers previous medical history, medications, lifestyle, family history and any current concerns.
This is followed by a one-to-one examination with one of our three principal doctors – all incredibly experienced GPs with special interests in preventative health screening, dermatology, male health, female health, lifestyle, nanomedicine and anti-ageing medicine between them.
