Comprehensive health screening in Kepong, KL

The wider tier: everything the standard screening covers, plus the abdominal ultrasound and cervical screening that need more than a blood draw. Worth it when there is something for it to find, and we will tell you when there is not.

Who a comprehensive screening is worth it for

The wider panel is worth its cost when there is something for it to find. When there is not, a smaller screening answers the same question for less, and we will say so.

  • You are over forty and have never had an abdominal ultrasound
  • There is diabetes, heart disease, liver disease or an early cancer in the family
  • Your waistline, blood pressure or last set of numbers has been drifting the wrong way
  • You drink regularly, or you have been told once before about your liver
  • You want a full picture rather than the minimum, and you would rather it was decided by a doctor

If you are in your twenties, well, and have no family history, this is not the tier to start on. The standard screening is the honest answer and it costs less.

What a comprehensive health screening adds

Everything the standard screening covers, and then the parts that need equipment or take longer than a blood draw.

A wider blood panel
Beyond sugar and cholesterol: liver and kidney function in full, a full blood count, thyroid function and uric acid where they are warranted. Which of these are run is still decided at the consultation.
Abdominal ultrasound
The part that most changes what a screening finds. Fatty liver, gallstones and kidney findings are usually silent, and this is how they are actually seen rather than inferred from a blood result.
Cervical screening, for women
A Pap smear, included at this tier. It finds cervical change years before it becomes anything, which is the whole reason it exists.
The free HIV rapid test
4th-generation, anonymous, result in about twenty minutes. It comes with any visit, whether or not you have anything else done.
A longer consultation
More to go through means more time to go through it. The results conversation is the part that turns a panel of numbers into something you can act on.

How a comprehensive screening works

  1. Come fasted

    Eight to ten hours, water only. Glucose and lipids are both on this panel and both are affected by breakfast.

  2. Consultation first

    History, family history, and what you have had done before. This is where the panel is finalised, including anything you want added.

  3. Bloods, then the ultrasound

    The scan is done on the same visit. A full bladder is not needed for an abdominal scan, but fasting does improve the view of the gallbladder.

  4. Cervical screening, if it applies

    Done in the same visit, or booked separately if you would rather. It is not done during a period.

  5. Results, explained

    By the doctor who ordered them. Abnormal numbers are common and most of them are not serious, which is exactly why they need explaining rather than emailing.

What a full check-up can and cannot rule out

The wider tier finds more. It does not find everything, and the difference is worth being clear about before you pay for it.

What it finds

  • Fatty liver, gallstones and kidney findings, on the scan rather than by inference
  • Diabetes and pre-diabetes, and where your cholesterol actually sits
  • Cervical change, years before it becomes anything
  • Anaemia, thyroid disease and kidney impairment that had no symptoms

What it misses

  • Most cancers, which no general screening panel is designed to find
  • Anything in the chest or the bowel, neither of which an abdominal scan reaches
  • A heart problem that only shows under exertion
  • A symptom you already have, which needs seeing about rather than screening for

Where a comprehensive screening leads

Who you are dealing with

Your doctor
Every doctor here is named on this site with their training, and one of them is a Family Medicine Specialist on the National Specialist Register. You are seen by a doctor rather than assessed at a counter.
Your records
Held in the clinic's own encrypted system rather than on paper in a drawer, so the doctor seeing you has the rest of your history in front of them.
Your follow-up
Questions afterwards and repeat prescriptions go to the doctor who saw you, directly on WhatsApp rather than through a front desk.
Your time
Walk in any day until 8pm. The clinic has served Kepong Baru since 1981 and most of what is on this page is done in one visit.

Come in, or ask first

Walk in any time we are open (daily, 9:00am to 8:00pm), or send a message and ask whatever you need to ask before you do.

Common questions

What is the difference between this and the standard screening?
The wider blood panel, the abdominal ultrasound and cervical screening. The ultrasound is the part that most changes what gets found, because fatty liver and gallstones are silent and are seen rather than inferred.
Do I need to fast?
Yes, eight to ten hours, water only. Glucose and lipids are both affected by breakfast, and fasting also improves the view of the gallbladder on the scan.
How long does it take?
Allow a couple of hours for the visit itself. Blood results follow separately, and the results consultation is booked once they are back.
Is a full body checkup the same thing?
It is what people usually mean by it. There is no examination that checks the whole body, and any package that implies otherwise is selling the phrase rather than the tests.
Can I add tests to it?
Yes, and the consultation is where to raise it. Something specific you are worried about is a better reason to run a test than the fact that it appeared on a list.
