Bupa Advanced Health
An all-round assessment of health and fitness.
In addition to the test and measures offered by our Complete Health assessment, the Bupa Advanced Health Assessment uses a cardiorespiratory exercise test to measure your fitness levels. The results will show how well your heart, lungs, muscles and metabolism perform during exercise. The fitter you are, the better your health is likely to be, so fitness can be a useful indicator of the changes you need to make to reduce your risk of developing serious conditions in the future.
Whether you lead an active lifestyle and need some reassurance that you’re doing all the right things, or want to know how to take a more pro-active approach to your health, our most extensive health assessment will give you the advice and information you need in language you can understand.

We choose our doctors carefully; normally they will have been qualified for at least five years and have a broad background of medical experience. Many will have a higher degree – MRCGP, MRCP or equivalent. All will have undergone a training programme to familiarise them with the concept of health assessment and Bupa protocols. All are subject to an initial three-month appraisal and then annual appraisals thereafter, with regular notes audits and report checks.
Our health advisers are all either registered nurses, degree qualified exercise physiologists or hold other health related degrees. All have been specially trained by Bupa so that they have an in-depth understanding of wellbeing and health as it can be influenced by lifestyle. All health advisers are subject to regular appraisal.
