Complete medical and performance tests
The package combines clinical review, blood tests, ECG, grip strength, CPET, and musculoskeletal assessment.

Findings are brought together in a performance-focused report with follow-up.

The clinic will confirm exercise testing preparation. Bring training history, injury history, medicines, and relevant previous results.

Follow-up

How this health check fits into preventative care
A private health check is most useful when the tests are interpreted alongside your medical history, family history, lifestyle, symptoms, medicines, and examination findings. The aim is not simply to collect results, but to help you understand what they mean and what, if anything, should happen next.
This check gives your doctor a structured way to assess relevant risk markers and discuss practical next steps. Some patients use it as an annual baseline, while others book because they have reached a particular age, have a family history of disease, or want a more detailed review than a short GP appointment can usually provide.
If the package is too narrow or too broad for your circumstances, the clinic can advise before or during the appointment. You can also compare this check with adjacent options on the pricing page, including shorter screens and more comprehensive packages with imaging or extended follow-up.
Is CPET included?
Yes. The Sports Health Check includes CPET, a cardiopulmonary exercise test.
Is the musculoskeletal assessment on the same day?
The MSK specialist assessment and CPET may not be on the same day if booked online. Phone the clinic if you need them on the same day as your doctor appointment.
Is this only for professional athletes?
No. It is suitable for active individuals who want a more detailed performance-focused review.
