Extended Laboratory Blood Panel

The Extended Laboratory Blood Panel at Galen Clinic is a broad self-pay blood test offering a wider marker set than a basic check-up, intended for clients who want a fuller picture of their metabolic, organ and general health status. The panel is offered in sex-specific versions (women 5,300 Kč, men 5,500 Kč) to reflect relevant differences in reference markers. Blood is drawn at the clinic and analysed by the clinic's laboratory specialists, with results reviewed by a physician. It is a convenient option for self-payers who want a comprehensive blood work-up without enrolling in a full preventive programme, and pairs well with a GP or internist consultation to interpret the findings.

A comprehensive blood panel is one of the highest-yield preventive health checks, surfacing early metabolic, organ-function and inflammatory changes before symptoms appear. Galen Clinic offers an extended self-pay panel as a standalone option for clients who want broader coverage than the basic panel. **Versions and pricing:** The extended panel is provided in a women's version (5,300 Kč) and a men's version (5,500 Kč), reflecting differences in relevant markers between the sexes. These are self-pay prices from the clinic's price list valid from 13 February 2025. **Context within the clinic's testing:** Galen Clinic's laboratory menu ranges from a basic panel (women 800 Kč, men 900 Kč) through this extended panel, alongside single tests such as CRP (350 Kč), urinalysis (500 Kč), faecal occult blood test (450 Kč) and a stand-alone blood draw (300 Kč). The clinic's broader preventive programmes incorporate panels covering electrolytes, kidney function, liver tests, blood glucose, complete blood count, thyroid function, inflammatory markers and cholesterol/blood lipids — the extended self-pay panel offers comparably wide coverage outside of a programme. **How it works:** Blood is drawn at the clinic by clinical staff and processed by the laboratory. Results are reviewed by a physician; clients can add a GP or internist consultation (from 1,500 Kč for 15 minutes) to interpret the results and plan any follow-up. For accurate glucose and lipid measurement, fasting is generally required. **Note:** The exact list of analytes is determined by the physician according to the client's needs; prescribed tests and any medications are paid by the client without health-insurance participation. Appointments must be booked in advance.
