Hi Guys,

Is there any place to recommend on full body medical checkup?
I know most major hospitals have it but jsut wondering which one is good?
SJMC i heard is quite good but the fees is very very expensive?
Perhaps, would you mind to share any places that you have been to conduct a full checkup?

Many thanks

What are the tests included in a 'full body medical checkup'?

before i started working, they sent me to the hospital opposite pizzahut in TTDI.
- check eyesight
- check weight (say i overweight lah... as usual )
- check urine (to see if i'm a drug addict ??)
- x-ray

and that's all i can remember. Definately didn't check blood, cos checking blood is
expensive. Not sure bout the rates tho for the checkup cos company paid.

i want to go for a full body check up too..can we do it in those normal clinics?

of course not...
clinics lack the facilities...
clinics no x-ray.

been told by those insurance agent b4, don't go for full medical check up unless u oredi bought insurance becoz if u go for check up and u found something not good, and u didn't mention it in the forms, you insurance claim risk to be a dispute there wor...

Hmm...how much would it cost? never done it before..

Absolutely right...

it is depending on the age and the pre-morbid condition u have, eg hypertension, diabetes mellitus.. etc

but normally it consists of blood test like full blood count, lipids, blood sugar, liver/renal function test.. urine sample.. then for heart maybe ECG, stress test.. etc

for women.. maybe pap smear.. etc

it comes in package and different prices...

every year i do body check once...every time same clinic.
wat they did is take my 1st moring urine sample...and draw blood...
cost around rm100-rm120

is that cheap? is that good enuff to know if anything wrong??
never do x-ray B4...

Try the following options:

i reckon most labs do tests e.g blood and urine, which is sufficient on the surface to check for any abnormalities...
i did mine in Australia in those drug labs e.g Pathlab (they are like an external unit from the hospitals that does all this checks). Msia have Pathlab too i think. Not too expensive. Blood + urine is AUD40.
but i dun think it's expensive either in msia.
i thought some of the insurances include for body check ups annually?

The really "full body" checkup includes not only blood, urine, and X-ray but also the doctor sticking his finger up ur @$$hole to check your prostate, and running on a threadmill to check your heartbeat rate.

Does the insurance policy in Australia cover annual medical check-up cost?

Did he puts on any glove?

Shock to hear that..!!! going to shove his fingers up my male hole?! I'll be crying for help if that ever happenz~!! Can we choose not too have that examination??!! Evil Docs!! Wakakakakak... hmm... or should i say GAY DOCS... who knows?! they enjoy it... Ewww~~

SAY NO TO XXX PRIDE!!!

i guess yearly check up is good for everybody.

try look out for pantai's promotions for full body check up. i find them very professional and trust-worthy. hehehehe... clinics normally will charge extra for the service.

other than tat, can try pathlab too.

i wonder why u want to do the body check up... and how much u are willing to spend on it.... ? then it can help u to choose the package lo,,, dude...

in clinic also they screen old people for diabetes, hypertension and hyperlipidaemia only..

750 in sunway med , blood, urine, lungs, hearing, eyesight etc.....these are the test and it took me half a day to complete it....i did not purchase stress-test (running on threadmill) as it is for older people..
