In the evolving world of medicine, preventive healthcare stands as the frontline defense against chronic illness, costly treatments, and avoidable hospital visits. At Swiss Medical Services, a premier medical center in Prague City Center, we believe that regular check-ups—combined with lifestyle monitoring, nutrition, and targeted screenings—are the key to a longer, healthier life.
Whether you're a professional requiring a medical check-up for work or a seafarer needing clearance for sea duty, early detection can be life-saving. And it all begins with preventive care.
What is Preventive Healthcare?
Preventive healthcare involves routine evaluations and proactive interventions aimed at detecting risk factors before they turn into disease. This includes:
Full body check-ups
Medical certificates for driving licences
Medical check-ups for work on sea ships
Sports medical evaluations
Cardiovascular screenings
Obesitology and podiatry consultations
By identifying potential health issues early, we reduce the burden of future complications, support faster recovery, and minimize treatment costs.
Why Regular Check-Ups Are Vital
Routine check-ups are the simplest and most effective way to maintain your health. Here’s what we typically monitor at Swiss Medical Services:
Heart health with our English-speaking cardiologists
Body mass index (BMI) and metabolic risk in obesitology
Vitamin and mineral deficiencies through infusion therapy
Vision, hearing, and physical fitness for driving licence medicals
Overall wellness during general health screenings
For expats and English speakers in Prague, we offer a full range of services including English-speaking GPs, paediatricians, and gynecologists—all under one roof.
