I'm very satisfied with this medical clinic. I had my first pregnancy screening here. It was affordable and very professional. The radiologist was welcoming, kind, and made the experience great.

Hurt my knee Friday night and got an MRI appointment Sunday evening (booked Sunday afternoon). Waited about 2 minutes and was done in just over 30 minutes. The team was amazing, friendly and efficient.

What's Included in This Package

Biomarkers are measurable indicators in your blood, urine, or imaging that reveal how your body is functioning. Each one gives your doctor specific insight into a system or risk factor — here's what this package covers.

FBS + HbA1cChecks your blood sugar levels and 3-month average — essential for safe GLP-1 medication prescribing and detecting pre-diabetes.
Lipid ProfileMeasures cholesterol and triglycerides — cardiovascular risk assessment and baseline for treatment.
Liver Function (ALT, AST, GGT)Screens for fatty liver disease. Required before starting metabolic health medication.
Thyroid Panel (TSH, Free T4)Tests thyroid function — hypothyroidism is one of the most common treatable causes of metabolic imbalance.
Renal Function (Creatinine, BUN)Checks kidney function — required for safe dosing of GLP-1 medications and assessing overall metabolic health.
Hormone PanelComprehensive hormonal evaluation including testosterone, LH, FSH, and estradiol — hormonal imbalances directly affect metabolism and body composition.
All results reviewed by specialist doctors
