Bupa Mature Health Check

Helps to give you peace of mind with this extensive health assessment – tailor made for people over the age of 65. Whatever your concerns, you won’t be rushed as you'll get plenty of time to discuss them with the doctor. We’re here to help you and offer the appropriate advice.

Through an extensive range of tests, including additional ones for age-related conditions, we aim to give you a thorough health check.

The physiological tests include assessing your heart, lungs, abdomen and central nervous system. We'll look at your blood pressure, cholesterol blood tests and heart trace (ECG), and assess your risk of heart disease.

We carry out detailed blood analysis to test for conditions such as diabetes, gout, anaemia and liver and kidney problems. Your hearing and vision will be checked, and we’ll provide a detailed body composition profile,. We'll also talk you through diet and lifestyle.

For men, we'll provide a testicular examination, for women, a cervical smear and breast examination. We'll inform you about your potential health risks and instruct you on how to perform self-examinations and be 'body aware'. Women can have a mammogram for an extra fee.
