Male Health Check-Up (Over 40) in Turkey
Enhanced screening for men over 40, PSA prostate check, cardiac assessment, comprehensive blood work, and specialist consultations. All completed in a single day from £593.
After 40, certain health risks become more significant for men, prostate health, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic conditions all warrant closer monitoring. This check-up is designed to cover exactly what matters for your age group, giving you a thorough, honest assessment of where your health stands.
In the UK, achieving this scope of screening would require multiple GP visits, referrals to different departments, and weeks of waiting. In Turkey, everything is completed in a single, well-organised day at a government-licensed hospital. No chasing appointments. No waiting for callbacks. Just clear answers.
A private health screening of this scope in the UK typically costs between £1,000 and £2,000. Your all-inclusive package starts from just £595 including 3 nights in a 5-star hotel, VIP transfers, and a personal translator throughout.

Am I Suitable?
This check-up is designed for any man over 40 who wants a thorough, proactive health assessment. No referral or symptoms needed.
This check-up is particularly valuable if:
- You have not had a PSA or prostate check
- You have a family history of prostate cancer, heart disease, or diabetes
- You want to monitor cholesterol, blood pressure, and cardiovascular risk
- You drink alcohol regularly and want to check liver health
- You are experiencing fatigue, reduced energy, or changes in urinary habits

You might consider a different package if:

- You want the most extensive screening possible (consider the VIP or Comprehensive packages)
What Happens During the Procedure?
Your check-up day is organised so you move smoothly between departments with minimal waiting.
Before you arrive
You complete a pre-check questionnaire covering your medical history, lifestyle, medications, family history, and any specific concerns. This helps the medical team prioritise areas relevant to you.
On the day
You are collected from your 5-star hotel. Your personal translator accompanies you. Arrive fasting (no food for 8-10 hours, water is fine).
The day runs from morning to mid-afternoon. Appointments include blood draws, abdominal ultrasound, ECG, physical examination, and specialist consultations. Everything is pre-scheduled.
Results and consultation
Most results are available within hours. A specialist reviews all findings with you, including your PSA level, cardiovascular risk profile, liver and kidney function, and hormone levels. You receive honest, clear explanations and actionable recommendations.
After your check-up
You receive a detailed written report in English. The rest of your 3-night stay is yours to enjoy. Many patients combine their check-up with another treatment or simply use the trip as a break.
Recovery & Aftercare
No recovery is needed. All tests are non-invasive or minimally invasive.
On the day:
- Small bruise possible at the blood draw site
- Light-headedness after fasting resolves with food and water
- You are free to enjoy the rest of your day after appointments
After your check-up:
- Share your report with your UK GP
- No restrictions on activity, diet, or travel
- If any findings need follow-up, our team provides clear guidance
Risks & Considerations
Health check-ups carry virtually no medical risk.
Minor considerations:
- Small bruise at blood draw site
- Brief discomfort during examinations
- Anxiety about results, specialists explain findings clearly and in context
About PSA testing:
- PSA is a useful screening tool but not a definitive diagnostic test. An elevated PSA does not automatically mean prostate cancer, infection, inflammation, or benign enlargement can also raise levels
- If your PSA is elevated, your specialist will explain what it means and recommend appropriate next steps
All tests are conducted by qualified specialists in a government-licensed hospital.

Frequently Asked Questions
PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) is a protein produced by the prostate gland. A blood test measures the level of PSA in your blood. Elevated levels can indicate prostate problems, including benign enlargement, infection, or prostate cancer. It is one of the most important screening tools for men over 40, particularly those with a family history of prostate cancer. Regular PSA monitoring helps detect changes early, when treatment options are most effective.
An annual or biannual comprehensive check-up is recommended for men over 40, depending on your risk factors. If you have a family history of heart disease, prostate cancer, or diabetes, annual screening is advisable. Even without specific risk factors, a check-up every 1-2 years provides valuable baseline data and catches potential issues early. Many patients make their Turkey health check an annual habit.
PSA is a valuable screening tool but should be understood in context. It has a sensitivity of about 80% for detecting prostate cancer, but elevated PSA can also be caused by non-cancerous conditions such as benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate), prostatitis (infection), or even vigorous exercise. Your specialist will interpret your PSA level alongside your age, symptoms, and medical history to determine whether further investigation is needed.
If any result falls outside the normal range, your specialist will explain what it means in clear terms, including whether it requires immediate action, monitoring, or further investigation. You are not left wondering. For findings that need follow-up, our team will help you understand the options, which may include additional testing in Turkey or referral back to your GP or NHS consultant at home. Many early-stage findings are manageable with lifestyle changes or monitoring.
The NHS offers a basic Health Check for adults aged 40-74, covering blood pressure, cholesterol, BMI, and diabetes risk, typically lasting 20-30 minutes. It does not routinely include PSA testing, ultrasound, hormone levels, or comprehensive blood chemistry. Achieving the scope of this package through the NHS would require multiple GP appointments, specialist referrals, and significant waiting times. This check-up delivers everything in a single, efficient day.
