About 1 in 5 of us is
estimated to have early signs of chronic diseases such as diabetes and
heart disease. Our health screen focuses on the detection of this early
warning that we may be at risk of developing these chronic diseases in
later life. These diseases are progressive in nature, but if the very
early signs are detected soon enough, lifestyle changes have been
demonstrated to slow down, prevent or even reverse progression towards
the full disease state.

We will come to you to carry
out the health screen which should take no more than 30 minutes. This
will require just a small pin-prick blood sample which is analysed
straight away. You will have your results before we leave.
The Healthaware screen needs to be carried out when you have not eaten
for 12 hours and is therefore usually most conviently done first thing
in the morning.
