Check-Up

The main purpose of a check-up is to identify your risk factors before you develop a disease and to eliminate them. It is also a medical approach that provides extremely valuable information about the course of illness in our patients with chronic diseases. At İzmir Can Hastanesi, all modern imaging and advanced laboratory tests are performed, and our check-up packages also include examinations by a number of physicians.

Why Should We Have a Check-Up?

• To detect early the age-related changes that have developed or may develop in our body
• To detect diseases we are genetically predisposed to and protect ourselves against them
• To identify and correct early any elements of our lifestyle that threaten our health
• To see the current status of chronic diseases we already have (cancer, diabetes, heart disease, hypertension, etc.) and get our doctor's recommendations
• To learn about possible future health risks and take precautions

Which Diseases Can Be Diagnosed with a Check-Up?

• Heart diseases: arrhythmias, coronary artery disease, heart failure

What Does a Personalized Check-Up Mean?

Just as our daily habits, the foods we like to eat and the clothes we wear differ from person to person, the diseases a person is predisposed to and the illnesses they go through are also unique to them. That is exactly why there is a well-known saying in medicine: 'There are no diseases, only patients.' Taking this saying as its starting point, İzmir Can Hastanesi offers a Personalized Check-Up Program based on many individual factors, such as your habits, age, sex, lifestyle, family risk factors and occupation.

Much valuable information, such as smoking, high-stress occupations, a family history of heart disease, early deaths from heart attack in the family, a family history of cancer, eating habits and the amount of time a person is physically active each day, is evaluated on an individual basis at the İzmir Can Hastanesi Check-Up Center; this broad range of diseases is diagnosed and treated in the relevant departments.

Considering that many risk factors are preventable and modifiable, it is clear how important it is for our health to have regular check-ups and to receive medical advice at a fully equipped center.
