Male Cancer Risk + Complete (over 40s)

This premium package combines the tests in the Male Cancer Risk package with the tests in the Complete package to give you a comprehensive overview of your cancer risk and overall health, with a focus on heart disease and stroke risk.

Spotting the signs of cancers early can be vitally important. In many instances, beginning treatment for cancer early can make all the difference. We do not recommend this package if you’re aged under 40 due to the risk of false positives and false negatives.

Suitable for ages 40-79

Combining all the tests in the Male Cancer Risk package together with the tests in the Complete health MOT, this package is designed for men who want a comprehensive assessment of their cancer risk and general health. The cancer risk part of the package includes tests for bowel, prostate and stomach cancer risk, together with a urine test for kidney cancer and a blood health profile. The Complete part of the package adds an ECG heart rhythm check for Atrial Fibrillation, plus tests for Peripheral Arterial Disease, a Heart Disease & Stroke risk assessment for Metabolic Syndrome, and a new specialist Lipoprotein (a) blood test which checks for fatty build-ups in your arteries which increase your risk of heart disease and stroke.

All of your test results are explained fully in your Results Report so you'll know whether any further action is needed. And you’ll have the added benefit of discussing any concerns you may have with a registered GP during a private consultation by phone or webcam after your appointment.

What's included in this health

check?

Your Health Assessment includes:

Unlimited access to a 24/7 GP helpline for a year after your appointment. From tummy upsets to travel advice, the service even covers prescriptions.
This test examines your blood health by checking your haemoglobin levels (including Mean Cell Haemoglobin or MCH) and red blood cell count (also known as an erythrocyte count). Abnormal haemoglobin levels can sometimes be a result of heart and lung diseases, while MCH and red blood cell count abnormalities can be caused by anaemia or vitamin deficiency.
Your cholesterol test, also called lipid panel, measures Triglycerides, High Density Lipoprotein (HDL), and Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) in your blood. LDL cholesterol is often referred to as bad cholesterol because high levels contribute to fatty build-ups in the arteries and increase the risk of heart attack, stroke and peripheral arterial disease (PAD). The HbA1c blood test determines your risk of diabetes and is far more accurate than standard glucose testing. While a standard test is a snapshot of your glucose levels at the moment your sample is taken, the HbA1c test measures the average amount of glucose in your blood over the last 2-3 months.
The liver function test looks at ALP (alkaline phosphatase), ALT (alanine aminotransferase), Gamma GT (Gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase), and Bilirubin levels in your blood to understand if you have a normal liver function.
Your Prostate Cancer risk test examines the levels of Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) in your blood. Sometimes raised PSA levels can be a sign of prostate cancer, but in many cases it’s caused by a noncancerous condition, such as an enlarged or inflamed prostate. The PSA blood test is only recommended for men aged 40-79 due to the risk of false positive or negative results.
This blood test looks for Helicobacter Pylori (H Pylori) antibodies in your blood. H Pylori is a common bacteria found in the human digestive tract, which causes chronic inflammation which can lead to stomach ulcers. A H Pylori infection increases your risk of developing stomach cancer, but once detected, the infection can usually be treated with antibiotics.
The Quantitative Faecal Immunochemical Test (qFIT) is an advanced form of bowel cancer screening used to identify tiny, invisible particles of blood in a sample of your stool, which can be an indication of bowel cancer or other diseases that affect the bowels. You'll be given a kit to take a sample of stool from the comfort of your home which you then send to our lab for analysis.
This test assesses your white blood cell (WBC) count and platelet count. Platelets are cell fragments which help your blood to clot. A platelet count which is too high or low can indicate thrombocytosis or immune system deficiencies. Your WBC count includes neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils and basophils. These are part of your body's immune system, helping your body fight infection and disease. A low WBC count can increase your risk of getting infections, while a high WBC can indicate that your body is trying to fight an infection. A high WBC can sometimes be caused by certain cancers, including leukaemia.
Your results will be available 24/7 through ‘My Wellness’, our online dashboard and app. You will receive an email notification as soon as your results are available. Processing times vary by test, with some results accessible on the dashboard in as little as three days. The online dashboard also provides easy access to a downloadable PDF, making it simple to share your results with your GP. Your report explains each test in detail, giving every result a flag of green, amber or red. This helps you identify any areas of concern at a glance. The report gives you follow-up advice on how you could improve your results, and we'll also let you know if any results need further follow-up with your own GP.
Your heart disease & stroke risk test, also called metabolic syndrome, combines test results from your health assessment (including cholesterol, BMI and blood pressure) with other common risk factors (like high blood pressure or having diabetes). Your result will help show the likelihood of you suffering heart disease or stroke in the future.
After you've received your results report, you can book your Private GP Consultation (which takes place over phone or webcam) at a time and date convenient to you. The GP will have a copy of your full results report, allowing you to talk through any areas of concern.
Your body composition scan is performed by sending a safe electrical signal through your body via pressure-contact electrodes. You’ll receive a breakdown of the percentages and weights of the various components of your body including muscle mass, visceral fat, body water and more.
Your blood test for kidney function checks your levels of sodium, urea, and creatinine as these can indicate any issues with kidney function. We also include an eGFR test (estimated glomerular filtration rate) which is a calculation of the amount of blood filtered through your kidneys over a period of time. This useful test is a measurement of how efficiently your kidneys are working.
Your lung function test is an assessment of your respiratory health using spirometry. Lung function is often impaired due to respiratory conditions like asthma, bronchitis, emphysema, pulmonary fibrosis or COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease). This test is only recommended for ages 18-79.
Your essential proteins and iron test measures a number of important proteins found in the blood that are required for healthy bodily function, and iron which is vital for red blood cell production. Low protein levels can sometimes be related to liver or kidney disease, while low iron levels can show iron deficiency.
Your urinalysis looks at 11 separate components of your urine, including ketones, proteins, crystals and glucose. It can detect a number of common conditions which may have no symptoms in their early stages, including diabetes, kidney disease and urinary tract infections. Your urine sample will also be analysed for traces of blood, which can be a sign of bladder cancer. You'll be given a kit to take a sample of urine from the comfort of your home which you then send to our lab for analysis.
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a common condition which restricts blood flow to the legs, most likely due to fatty deposits causing narrowing of the arteries (atherosclerosis). This test uses the ABPI (Ankle Brachial Pressure Index) to compare the blood pressure in your leg with the blood pressure in your arm. This test is only recommended for ages 40-79.
This test measures the levels of calcium, phosphate and uric acid in your blood. Calcium and phosphate are essential for muscle and nerve function, healthy teeth and bones, and energy function. Deficiencies in these can cause pins and needles, muscle cramps, weakness and tiredness. Uric acid helps test for gout, a painful condition affecting the joints in your body.
A 6-lead ECG test will be used to check your heart rhythm. An accredited Cardiac Data Analyst will then review your trace (the image of your heartbeat over a period of time). The most common type of irregular heartbeat is atrial fibrillation, which affects around 1.2 million people in the UK. People with an irregular heartbeat are 5 times more likely to suffer a stroke than those without. This is because the condition increases your risk of blood clots.
This specialist test measures the amount of lipoprotein (a) in your blood. Lipoprotein (a) is a sticky cholesterol rich protein which transports fats in the blood. Similar to LDL (bad) cholesterol, high levels are a risk factor for heart disease and stroke because they can stick to the walls of your arteries, restricting blood flow. This test is currently not available in Northern Ireland.

I received various invitations to get checked out, but always wondered would it be worth it.... Then I just decided to do it, and honestly I couldn't be happier. The location was easy to get to. I got looked after very well, everything got explained in normal English and the details I received after were amazing. The book was really detailed and easy to understand. Will definitely recommend and do it again for myself.
