We initiate annual medical examinations of our patients at the Check-up Unit of the American Hospital. Check-up programs are designed in line with specific risk factors and requirements of each patient and are coordinated with other departments. This approach prioritizes the holistic evaluation of each patient utilizing the outstanding interdisciplinary support that is available at our hospital.
Irrespective of how professionally our check up program is formulated, we are aware that no single check-up program can meet the needs of all patients and therefore check-up programs at the American Hospital are modified according to the patient’s specific risk factors; medical history, genetic background, lifestyle and environmental conditions are all taken into consideration during the initial doctor-patient discussion. Moreover, most of the procedures, ranging from height measurement to ultrasound, are performed in a single session at the Check-up outpatient clinic. Any further examinations and tests carried out by other departments are also arranged by the check-up department.
The check-up clinic’s mandate includes the continuous communication with patients, starting from the initial encounter, and occupying the role of ‘first unit’ for patients to present or consult for any and all health problems along with regular medical examinations.
