Preparing for a health check-up: what to do before your appointment

08 October 2026

A little preparation makes your health check-up faster and the results more reliable. Always follow the specific instructions for your package; these are the general points most patients need.

Fasting

Many blood tests, such as fasting blood sugar and cholesterol, need 8–12 hours without food. Plain water is usually allowed. Ask us if your package requires fasting.

Your regular medicines

Do not stop any medicine on your own. Bring a list of everything you take, including doses, and ask the doctor whether to take it on the morning of the check-up.

What to bring

  • Passport (required for registration)
  • Previous reports and imaging, especially for any known condition
  • Glasses or contact lenses if you use them
  • Your appointment confirmation

On the day

Wear comfortable clothing that is easy to change. Women should let the staff know if they may be pregnant, as some imaging tests are not suitable during pregnancy.

Results

Most results are explained by a doctor on the same day or the next day. Our team can help you understand the report and arrange any follow-up consultation.
