Advanced Health Check (Blood Test)
Give your body an advanced health check and find out how to support your health.
Why would you benefit from a Health Check?
A general health check gives you a clear picture of what’s going on inside and how to
support your body. Check everything from your cholesterol levels to your liver health and vitamin D levels. Thriva doctors always explain the next steps to help you maintain or improve your results. And you can access your health data anytime, anywhere, just as you should be able to.
Delays in processing samples of more than 24 hours can affect Full Blood Count parameters including mean corpuscular volume, haematocrit and red cell distribution width, and the white cell count and differential. When the GP is writing your report, they will take this into account.
