Comprehensive Health Evaluation

The two-day Comprehensive preventive examination, which is carried out in Bled, involves the largest number of tests and is the most comprehensive and thorough. Our doctors therefore recommend it especially for those patients who are having the examination for the first time, or whose last examination was several years ago.

The Comprehensive preventive examination begins on Monday morning and ends on Tuesday early in the afternoon. Occasionally we also have weekend appointments, which take place from Friday morning to Saturday – you will finish with a preventive examination early in the afternoon, after a final interview with your doctor.

The preventive examination takes place according to a carefully planned schedule, which we will inform you about upon arrival at our center.
