Essential Check-Up

A foundational health screening covering an internal medicine examination, ECG, chest X-ray, and core blood panels assessing liver and kidney function. Designed as an efficient entry-level check-up for international patients seeking a baseline health overview at a JCI-accredited hospital.

The Essential Check-Up at Acibadem Maslak Hospital provides a structured baseline health assessment within one of Turkey's largest and most established private hospital networks. The programme focuses on the core diagnostic investigations that form the foundation of preventive medicine: a clinical examination by an internal medicine specialist, electrocardiography to screen cardiac rhythm and electrical activity, and a chest X-ray to evaluate lung and mediastinal structures. The accompanying blood panel covers the key organ function markers — liver enzymes and kidney filtration parameters — alongside a general metabolic screen. These markers may help identify early signs of hepatic or renal stress that are commonly asymptomatic in their initial stages. The panel is designed to flag conditions that benefit from early intervention, providing a rational starting point for individuals who have not had a recent health assessment. This package is well suited for younger adults or those seeking a cost-effective annual screen without the specialist consultations and advanced imaging included in higher tiers. At approximately $500, it represents one of the more accessible entry points to hospital-grade health screening in Istanbul, delivered within the infrastructure of a JCI-accredited facility with dedicated international patient coordination.
