Our comprehensive blood tests include a haematology panel allowing for diagnosis of a wide range of benign and malignant disorders of the red and white blood cells, platelets and the coagulation system, including cholesterol, diabetes, thyroid, and hormone levels.

Inflammatory markers including ESR and high sensitivity CRP.

Tumour markers to include CEA, CA125 and CA 19-9. In addition, men will be screened for prostate cancer and women for cervical cancer.

We can undertake genetic testing on site, especially where this is a significant family history of early cancers including BRCA testing.

Liver and kidney function, diabetes screening and cholesterol profiles.

Vitamins and minerals levels to include vitamin B12, folate, calcium, phosphate, magnesium, iron profile, homocysteine and vitamin D.

Hormone levels, including cortisol, insulin, DHEA, testosterone (for men), and oestrogen and progesterone (for women).

To screen for skin cancers using a dermatoscope to image all suspicious lesions.

These are then sent to a lead Consultant Dermatologist for assessment prior to the follow up appointment to decide whether there is a need a biopsy or excision.

For colorectal cancer screening (FIT test).

If there are clinical concerns such a family history, low iron level and a positive stool test for blood, we arrange screening colonoscopies.

These are sometimes offered via CT scan but when physically performed by a gastroenterologist (which we recommend) they have a much higher sensitivity rate for picking up cancer and small (under 10mm) and flat polyps which CT colonoscopies do not. These can then be removed or biopsied at the same time as the procedure.

Pulmonary function tests, or PFTs. We measure how much air your lungs can hold, how well you move air in and out of your lungs and absorb oxygen when you breathe.

Dependent on individual risk factors and to limit unnecessary radiation risk (although small) through CT scans, we can arrange a CT scan of the lungs to look for small nodules which do not show up on a simple chest x ray and can indicate cancer or pre-cancerous changes. This scan will also show up chronic lung disease or damage.

A scan to establish and highlight at any plaques in the carotid arteries which untreated may lead to a stroke or potential cardiovascular risk.

Dependent on individual risk factors and to limit unnecessary radiation risk (although small) through CT scans, we can arrange a direct coronary artery CT scan (CTCA) to look at individual plaque formation in the vessels and the obstruction to blood flow which may result in a heart attack. This can be done at the same time as the coronary calcium scan.

Measurement of calcium deposits in the arteries of the heart – a gold standard assessment for ischaemic heart disease.

Dependent on individual risk factors and to limit unnecessary radiation risk (although small) through CT scans, we can arrange a direct coronary artery CT scan (CTCA) to look at individual plaque formation in the vessels and the obstruction to blood flow which may result in a heart attack. This can be done at the same time as the coronary calcium scan.

A bone mineral density scan to assess risk of serious fracture.

Low dose X-Rays to learn how dense (strong) your bones are, and diagnosis of or assessment of your risk of osteoporosis or serious fracture.

Providing insight for early signs of breast cancer.

Regular mammograms can find breast cancer early, sometimes up to three years before it can be felt.

This will look at organs to include the liver, kidneys, gall bladder, spleen, adrenal glands, and pancreas.

It can pick up early cancers especially silent cancers of the pancreas which often otherwise present late in the disease path when they are difficult to treat.

We will review with you within 5 working days, either face to face or via video – whichever option suits you – to go through all your results and make specific lifestyle and health recommendations to improve both your lifespan and healthspan.

You will receive a digital/paper report at the time.
