Check-Up Basis

A modular executive health screening at ZIM Fünf Höfe spanning one to two days, led by a team of eight internal medicine specialists. The programme includes a detailed consultation with health risk analysis, physical examination covering height, weight, body composition, blood pressure and pulse, resting ECG, spirometry, ultrasound of the upper abdomen and thyroid, and a comprehensive laboratory panel with CBC, electrolytes, lipid profile, liver and kidney function, thyroid markers, HbA1c, and trace elements. A closing consultation delivers a consolidated findings report with personalised recommendations. Add-on modules allow targeted expansion into cardiac assessment, hormone profiling, autoimmune screening, endoscopy, osteoporosis evaluation, tumour markers, or a dedicated 50+ screening package.

The Check-Up Basis at ZIM Fünf Höfe is structured around the principle that effective preventive screening requires specialist-level interpretation, not just data collection. Each patient is seen by one or more of the eight specialist physicians on staff, ensuring that findings in cardiology, endocrinology, gastroenterology, or diabetology are assessed by a physician whose primary expertise matches the clinical question. This interdisciplinary depth within a single practice eliminates the referral delays and information loss that characterise multi-site checkup pathways. The core programme begins with a thorough consultation that maps personal and family health history against current lifestyle factors to identify individual risk priorities. The physical examination records anthropometric data alongside blood pressure, pulse, and basic neurological assessment. Resting ECG screens for rhythm abnormalities and conduction defects. Spirometry measures lung capacity and airflow, catching early obstructive or restrictive patterns. Ultrasound of the upper abdomen visualises the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, spleen, and kidneys, while thyroid ultrasound assesses gland volume and nodular changes. The laboratory panel is unusually broad for a baseline checkup, extending beyond standard metabolic markers to include trace elements and HbA1c for long-term glycaemic control. The modular add-on structure means patients with specific concerns — family history of cardiac disease, hormonal symptoms, gastrointestinal complaints, or post-menopausal bone health — can expand the screening without repeating the baseline assessments. The closing consultation synthesises all findings into a single report with prioritised recommendations and follow-up intervals.
