Choosing a full body checkup in Kolkata
A basic package covering blood count, sugar, cholesterol, liver, kidney and thyroid suits healthy adults. The blood count is especially useful here because anaemia is common, particularly among women.
From your 30s, a package with HbA1c and vitamin tests gives a fuller view. After 45, or if heart disease or diabetes runs in the family, choose a larger package with extra heart markers.
A family habit
Many Kolkata families book checkups together around the festive season. One home visit can cover several family members, and each report comes online separately.
