Executive Health Screening is launched at Muscat Private Hospital

All it requires is to take a few hours out of your busy schedule to give yourself a complete and comprehensive health check up!

The EHS package is based on the fact that early detection of key individual risk factors is crucial for improved prevention of serious illness. This includes a comprehensive medical evaluation comprising full review of medical history, lifestyle habits and a complete physical examination performed by highly trained specialists with focus on risk factors for heart disease and cancer (blood pressure, weight, BMI, etc).

The EHS package is also unique in that it includes the state of the art Heart Scan on the 64 detectors CT (Lightspeed VCT-XT). This heart scan is a non invasive, painless and fast procedure that can detect any abnormality in the heart and especially analyse the coronary arteries (heart vessels) for calcifications and obstructions. "It is the only non invasive technique that can detect disease at an early and asymptomatic stage," explains Dr Rami Neemtallah, Consultant Cardiologist, Muscat Private Hospital. He adds, "In addition to this package, we provide specialised tests in colon cancer screening (virtual colonoscopy) using the 64 detectors CT and specific packages addressing women's health."

An in depth procedure, the EHS package also checks for vision and hearing abnormalities and studies the function of the lung. After completion of all tests, the physician will recommend important steps in order to optimise your health and minimise future risks.

"At Muscat Private Hospital, we offer our clients the most advanced, comprehensive health screening package, which is customised to your needs depending on your risk factors, family history, age and personal goals. Such a package is the need of the hour especially in today's stressful environment. Not only do you get personal attention and health recommendation but also a personalised diet plan based on your medical assessment. We are very happy to be one of the first healthcare providers to launch such a programme," informs Gary Dorahy, Country Manager, Muscat Private Hospital.
