WHAT ARE THE PROCEDURES THAT WILL BE PERFORMED DURING A CHECK-UP?
While the procedures change according to the check-up program you have selected and tests that will be performed, during a check-up program the following basic procedures are performed:
Detailed physical examination and final consultation with a physician are performed to direct the necessary tests, decide on the consultations you need, and to evaluate your results and make recommendations.
With blood tests, it is determined that how well an individual’s organs are functioning as well as metabolic, hormonal, and hematologic conditions.

Modern medicine aims to keep an individual healthy by taking the necessary precaution before a disease emerges. Because when a disease emerges, both the treatment process is long and exhausting, and our health is already compromised. Even though showing no symptoms or having no complaints, each person needs to have general health checks within certain periods. With check-ups, possible diseases can be diagnosed without any symptoms and be treated early. Please do not forget that a symptom that seems insignificant can lead to a serious disease.
