Health Checks for Men

Sometimes health screening can highlight multiple issues, which may take numerous consultations to address. If we feel these recommendations cannot be covered in the allocated consultation time, we will inform you of what we can cover and how long it would take to address all of your issues.

You can visit us in person or contact us by phone, message or email.

If you would like to access any of GP2Health services you will need to register with our practice. This is done using the secure Electronic Health Record (EHR) named Semble. We will email you or help you to complete a registration form in person. In this registration form, we will collect some of your personal information, including demographics, habits, medicines, and comorbidities. Please see our policies and regulations section to understand how we use your data.

There are 3 stages to your health check

1. Prior to the health check, we ask that you complete 3 questionnaires specific to men.

2. We then invite you to the practice for your physical exam, blood testing, ultrasound scans, stool samples, ECG, urinalysis etc. This depends upon which screen you choose.

3. Once all the results are back, the GP will review all of your results and deliver these verbally to you in person during a relaxed consultation. A written interpretation can be provided for you to take away. The results will form the structure for making recommendations on ways to improve your health.

If you are able to consent (legally give permission for the exams and tests) then we are happy for you to have the screening tests. Generally this is around the age of 13 but depends upon the individual. If you are not able to consent and a parent or legal guardian wants to request a screen for you, we will ask further questions as we may be able to help support your concerns in other ways.
