Basic Health Check-up (77 Biomarkers)

An entry-level blood screening covering 77 biomarkers across haematology, liver and kidney function, lipid profile, glucose metabolism, and urinalysis. Designed as a baseline wellness snapshot for individuals who want a broad overview without committing to a longer appointment or higher cost.

GulfCare's Basic Health Check-up draws from a single venipuncture session and a urine specimen to produce results across 77 distinct parameters. The haematology component includes a complete blood count with white cell differential, haemoglobin, haematocrit, platelet count, and red cell indices such as MCV, MCH, and MCHC, which together flag anaemia subtypes, infection trends, and clotting capacity. The metabolic panel covers fasting blood glucose and HbA1c for glycaemic control, alongside a standard lipid profile reporting total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglycerides, and the total-to-HDL ratio used in cardiovascular risk scoring. Liver function is assessed through ALT, AST, GGT, alkaline phosphatase, total bilirubin, and total protein with albumin and globulin fractionation, a combination that catches hepatocellular damage, cholestasis, and synthetic dysfunction. Kidney markers include serum creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, uric acid, and electrolytes — sodium, potassium, chloride, and bicarbonate — covering both filtration adequacy and electrolyte balance. Urinalysis screens for protein, glucose, blood, bilirubin, and urobilinogen, providing a non-invasive window into renal and hepatobiliary health that complements the serum results. An erythrocyte sedimentation rate rounds out the inflammatory screening. The specimen collection itself takes roughly ten minutes, with results typically available within 24 to 48 hours either in-centre or via a secure digital portal. No appointment is necessary — the centre accepts walk-ins throughout its operating hours, making this package practical for travellers with limited time in Dubai who want a data-dense health baseline without scheduling constraints.
