Preventive health check-ups

The check-up includes in-depth blood tests (blood glucose, HbA1c, HDL/LDL cholesterol, kidney and liver function, TSH thyroid, vitamins D and B12, tumor markers according to profile), a complete physical examination with vital signs, ECG, body composition analysis, nutritional consultation, kinesiological assessment, mental health screening, review of immunization record and, if medically indicated, additional tests such as ultrasound or bone densitometry. A detailed medical report is provided at the end of the check-up.

No. No prior prescription or family doctor is required to book a check-up at Clinique Omicron. Our medical team establishes the necessary tests during the initial consultation, based on your age, history and goals. The check-up can also complement your existing family doctor's follow-up, without interference.

The majority of chronic diseases - hypertension, diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, kidney failure, certain cancers - evolve silently for years before causing symptoms. When the first signs appear, the disease is often already at an advanced stage. A preventive check-up can detect these imbalances at a stage when they are still perfectly controllable, often through simple lifestyle adjustments.

The recommended frequency varies according to age and risk profile. In general, a check-up every one or two years is suggested from the age of 30; it becomes annual after 40 and is considered essential after 50. Certain factors justify more frequent check-ups: family history of cardiovascular disease or cancer, overweight, smoking, sedentary lifestyle or chronic stress. Your doctor will work with you to draw up a suitable follow-up schedule.

The health check-up at Clinique Omicron mobilizes a multidisciplinary team coordinated according to your needs: general practitioner (physical examination, interpretation of results, follow-up plan), nurse clinician (samples, vital signs, body composition), nutritionist (dietary assessment and recommendations), kinesiologist (physical condition and activity plan), and psychologist or medical specialist if required. All results are centralized in a single medical report.

Preventive check-ups are generally not covered by the RAMQ, unless certain examinations are carried out in a specific clinical context that is medically justified. However, most group and private insurers will reimburse all or part of the cost of a preventive check-up. We recommend that you check your coverage with your insurer before your appointment. See our Pricing section or contact the clinic for details.

Most blood test results and basic examinations are available within 24 to 48 hours. A complete medical report, including all results, preventive recommendations and personalized follow-up plan, is sent to you securely via the patient portal within 24 to 72 hours of your check-up. A follow-up appointment can be scheduled to discuss the results with your doctor.

Yes, Clinique Omicron offers a home sampling and examination service for patients with reduced mobility, the elderly, people on sick leave or those who simply prefer convenience. Our nurses come to your home or office as early as 7 a.m., seven days a week. Our turnaround times are identical to those of a clinic visit, and results are transmitted via a secure portal.

Before your check-up, it's advisable to prepare a summary of your personal and family medical history, a list of your current medications and supplements, your vaccination record if available, and the results of your last known tests. A fasting period of 8 to 12 hours is generally required for blood tests, including blood sugar and lipid levels. You will be given precise instructions when you confirm your appointment.

Absolutely. Our health check-ups can complement your family doctor's follow-up by offering a more in-depth assessment, specialized examinations or a multidisciplinary vision that the usual consultation framework doesn't always allow. The medical report produced can also be shared with your family doctor if you wish, to ensure optimum continuity of care.
