1. General Health Care
Preventive health care involves measures taken to prevent diseases or conditions before they start. This includes regular check-ups, screenings, and vaccinations.
Common chronic diseases managed include diabetes, hypertension (high blood pressure), asthma, arthritis, and heart disease.
The frequency of health check-ups depends on your age, health status, and risk factors. Generally, adults should have a check-up at least once a year.
Women’s health services include gynaecological exams, prenatal care, family planning, breast health screenings, and menopause management.
Paediatric care includes well-child visits, vaccinations, developmental screenings, and management of childhood illnesses and conditions.
2. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring
Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring is a method of measuring blood pressure at regular intervals over a 24-hour period, typically using a portable device.
ABPM provides a more comprehensive assessment of blood pressure throughout daily activities and sleep, offering insights into variations that may not be detected in clinic settings.
ABPM is recommended for patients suspected of having white coat hypertension, masked hypertension, resistant hypertension, or fluctuating blood pressure patterns.
The patient wears a small cuff attached to a portable monitor that automatically inflates and records blood pressure at regular intervals, usually every 15-30 minutes during waking hours and less frequently during sleep.
Most patients find ABPM comfortable, as the device is lightweight and designed for minimal disruption to daily activities. The cuff may inflate periodically but does not cause pain.
3. ENT
ENT specialists treat a wide range of conditions related to the ears, nose, throat, head, and neck, including sinusitis, hearing loss, throat infections, and more.
Common symptoms include persistent ear pain, hearing loss, sinus pain, frequent sore throats, hoarseness, and dizziness.
Sinusitis is an inflammation of the sinuses, often treated with medications, nasal sprays, or in severe cases, surgery.
Hearing loss is diagnosed through hearing tests and treated with hearing aids, medications, or surgical interventions, depending on the cause.
During an ENT consultation, expect a thorough examination, discussion of symptoms, and potential diagnostic tests.
