Regular checkups are a valuable tool in maintaining good health. It is good to find out that you have a problem, before it is too late to cure it. So, appropriate tests should be done at the right time.

The main aim of a preventive check-up is to detect illness at an early stage or better still prevent illness occurring in the first place. Some tests save so many lives that it is definitely worth the money spent on it. In adults up to about 40 years, a check-up every two years is deemed necessary.
