| Maintaining good health is crucial to quality of life. Health screening is an important part of monitoring your body to ensure your well being. Screening for common diseases, or primary prevention, can help detect risk factors for developing disease in the future and pick up illnesses in their early phases before they are apparent.
The Hanover Medical Centre in Dublin conducts health screening suitable to your age, family history and past medical history.
Our health screening involves a full medical, which includes a full medical history and medical examination, followed by blood tests and a resting ECG.
