About this hospitalWhat the center says
From the center's own pages, in English. Each statement links to its source.
The center asks patients to call promptly if they need to reschedule or cancel after booking.
The center accepts credit card or cash for the checkup fee; group companies follow their contract terms.
The center asks patients to fast for 6 hours before the exam.
The center asks patients to avoid exercise or strenuous work for two days before the exam.
The center asks patients collecting a stool sample to pick a firm or soft stool; if they have taken a bowel-clearing medication, to keep the first more solid stool passed; and if diarrhea makes the stool watery and hard to sample, to collect it another day instead.

How we priced it
A panel counts once however many of its tests the package lists. A test for one sex only is counted only for that sex. Tests we could not price are left out, so this is not what a US checkup would cost. Prices marked "rough" come from a single reseller or are extrapolated from a similar test.

Radiation from this package's imaging
About 0.1 mSv from the tests we could identify, a typical adult dose for these exams: less than 1 month of natural background radiation (about 3 mSv a year, US average).
This package also lists 15 items we have not matched to a test; if any of them is an X-ray, CT or PET scan, the total is higher.
- Bone density (DXA) · about less than 0.01 mSv
- Chest X-ray · about 0.1 mSv
Typical doses from published references (RadiologyInfo.org ↗, Mettler et al. 2008 ↗); the actual dose depends on the scanner and protocol. Ask the center for its own figure.

General preparation notes for 12 tests in this package
This is general information about how the exam is usually done, not medical advice for you or your family member. Requirements vary by center and by individual health history — always follow the center's own instructions and your own doctor's guidance, especially for any medicine change.
Mention when booking: Mention a pacemaker or implanted defibrillator: the test passes a weak electric current through the body and has traditionally not been recommended with these devices.
Fasting for 9 to 12 hours (no food or drink except plain water) is often requested, so the test is often done in the morning.
Mention when booking: Confirm with the center whether your test needs fasting; if you take insulin or other diabetes medicine, ask the prescribing doctor how to manage it while fasting.
Fasting for 9 to 12 hours (no food or drink except plain water) is often requested.
Mention when booking: Confirm with the center whether your test needs fasting; if you take insulin or other diabetes medicine, ask the prescribing doctor how to manage it while fasting.
Usually needs at least 8 hours without food or drink except water beforehand.
Mention when booking: If you take insulin or other diabetes medicine, ask the prescribing doctor how to manage it while fasting, and mention it to the center.
Usually needs a clean-catch (midstream) sample; some tests instead ask you to collect all urine passed over 24 hours.
Mention when booking: Ask which specific urine test your provider ordered, since collection instructions vary by test.
Usually needs no fasting; you remove jewelry, metal objects and sometimes clothing above the waist for a hospital gown.
Mention when booking: Tell the center if you are, or might be, pregnant.
Usually needs about 6 hours without food beforehand; clear fluids other than milk or fizzy drinks are commonly still allowed. Loose, comfortable clothing is easiest.
Mention when booking: Mention if you have type 1 diabetes, so the center can offer an early appointment time.
For a transabdominal scan, drinking water beforehand to fill the bladder is common; for a transvaginal scan, an empty bladder is usual instead.
Mention when booking: Tell the center which type of scan you expect, and mention if you are, or might be, pregnant.
Usually needs little or no preparation; an enema and antibiotics are mainly for a planned biopsy. A scan through the lower belly instead may need a full bladder.
Mention when booking: Mention aspirin or other blood thinners; if a biopsy is planned, the center may ask about pausing them, so ask the prescribing doctor before changing any medicine.
Usually asks that you avoid intercourse, douching and tampons for 24 hours beforehand, and avoid scheduling during your period if possible.
Mention when booking: Tell the center if you are having unexpected bleeding, think you might be pregnant, or have had an abnormal Pap or positive HPV test before.
Afterwards: Light bleeding or spotting afterward is common and usually stops within a few hours.
Usually asks that you skip calcium supplements for 24 hours beforehand. Avoid clothing with metal zippers or buttons, and remove jewelry.
Mention when booking: Mention any recent barium exam or CT/nuclear-medicine contrast, and whether pregnancy is possible.
Usually needs no special preparation; expect to listen for tones or words through headphones, and sometimes a small probe checks how the eardrum moves.
