Health screening at Verve Clinic in Petaling Jaya is a doctor-led check of how your body is working, using a comprehensive blood test or targeted panels. Results are usually ready in 3 to 7 working days, and our doctor goes through every result with you and explains what, if anything, needs attention.
Why health screening matters
Common conditions such as diabetes and high cholesterol often cause no symptoms for years. According to the National Health and Morbidity Survey (NHMS) 2023, 15.6% of Malaysian adults have diabetes and 33.3% have high cholesterol. Many do not know it: 5.9% of adults had undiagnosed diabetes and 18.1% had undiagnosed high cholesterol (NHMS 2023 fact sheet, Ministry of Health Malaysia). A blood test can pick these up early, when they are easier to manage.
Who should consider health screening?
- Adults who want a baseline check, even if they feel well
- Anyone with a family history of diabetes, high cholesterol or heart disease
- People with symptoms such as tiredness, weight changes or poor sleep
- Patients planning bioidentical hormone therapy or medical weight management, which start with blood tests

How often should I have a health screening?
We recommend screening once a year, or as advised by our doctor based on your results and health history.
Can I test only my hormones or thyroid?
Yes. If you have one particular concern, our doctor can recommend individual panels rather than a full package.
