Concierge men’s health · UK

Well-man health screen - a check-up worth having.

A structured half-day screen - bloods, PSA, cardiovascular, prostate and bone - matched to your age, history and questions. A UK GP or men’s health consultant, not a checklist tick-and-post.

Why patients choose us

  • 01

    UK consultant sign-off

    Every panel is signed off by a UKMLA-registered clinician - not a generic "results letter" with a company logo.

  • 02

    A conversation, not a PDF

    You get a proper clinician call to walk through the results and next steps, included in every price we quote.

  • 03

    Independent, and free

    We take no fee from providers. The recommendation is impartial and costs you nothing.

Indicative pricing

What a private well-man screen costs in the UK.

Indicative ranges across our partner health screening units. Send the details and we quote firm figures across two or three options, with cover checked.

In short

Well-man screen in our network: £350–£1,500, full report in 5–10 working days.

Procedure Indicative range
Core well-man screen (bloods, exam, BP, urinalysis) £350–£550
+ PSA and prostate examination £400–£650
+ ECG and cardiovascular risk assessment £500–£800
+ coronary calcium score £750–£1,100
Advanced (adds DEXA + prostate mpMRI + fitness testing) £1,100–£1,500
Consultation only £200–£400

Prices vary by whether PSA, calcium score, prostate MRI and DEXA are bundled. We recommend the level and cover the trade-offs before you book.

The problem

A well-man screen is only useful when it fits you - not a template.

Off-the-shelf screening packages are common. A useful screen asks about family history, cardiovascular risk, prostate concerns and metabolic health - and matches investigations to that, not to the price tier.

  • Age matters

    Under 40, focus on cardiovascular baseline; 40–50, add PSA discussion; 50+, add bone health and prostate imaging where indicated.

  • PSA is not simple

    We share the trade-offs before you consent - false positives, biopsy risks and mpMRI-first pathways.

  • Cardiovascular risk is the big one

    Coronary heart disease is the leading cause of male death in the UK - lipids, BP, HbA1c and calcium score matter more than any single test.

The journey

From enquiry to recovery - what happens, in order.

One team from first message through operation, histology and follow-up.

When it helps

When a well-man screen is the right step.

Situations where a structured screen adds something over ad-hoc tests.

  • Baseline assessment 30+

    A single properly-run screen against which future numbers are compared.

  • Cardiovascular risk 40+

    Lipids, HbA1c, blood pressure and, in higher-risk men, calcium score.

  • Family history of prostate cancer

    Earlier PSA discussion and mpMRI-first pathway if PSA rises.

  • Family history of heart disease

    Adds calcium score and closer lipid follow-up.

  • Erectile dysfunction

    Often the first sign of vascular disease - bloods and cardiovascular workup matter.

  • Metabolic concerns

    Weight, HbA1c, liver function, testosterone if symptomatic.

  • Executive baseline

    A structured screen tied to your work medical.

  • Red flag: acute symptoms need targeted care

    Chest pain, blood in urine, severe headache - see a specialist that week, not a screen next month.

Procedure options

What can be included.

Add-ons that earn their place - and those that don’t always.

  • Full blood count, U&Es, LFTs, TFTs

    Core bloods that catch common issues.

  • Lipids and HbA1c

    Cardiovascular and diabetes risk assessment.

  • Vitamin D, B12, ferritin

    Commonly low and often symptomatic.

  • PSA + free/total PSA

    With a proper discussion of risks and benefits before booking.

  • ECG and blood pressure

    Basic cardiovascular assessment; echocardiogram if indicated.

  • Coronary calcium score

    A low-dose CT - the strongest coronary risk marker in this age group.

  • Prostate mpMRI

    Where PSA is raised or family risk is high - see the prostate MRI page.

  • DEXA bone density

    For men over 50 with risk factors, or ADT patients.

Our vetted UK network

A small panel of GPs and men’s health consultants, we picked them.

Consultant GPs and men’s health consultants across London and the major UK cities. Introductions are made privately, once we understand your case.

Selection criteria

How we choose every consultant in our network.

A modern UK operating theatre
Consultant-led care
  • CQC-registered clinics and pathology partners across the UK

  • UK GMC-registered consultants signing off every report

  • UKAS-accredited pathology labs for every blood test

  • Insurer preauth handling for Bupa, AXA, Vitality, Aviva, WPA and Cigna

Safety and recovery

What to expect afterwards - honestly.

The safety profile is well understood. What matters is choosing the right test, and reading the report honestly.

  • Bloods and BP are safe

    Standard venepuncture and cuff measurement.

  • PSA is a shared decision

    We share false-positive rates, biopsy risks and mpMRI-first pathways before consent.

  • Prostate examination

    Well tolerated; chaperoned. A palpable nodule triggers a work-up.

  • Radiation, when used

    Calcium score is around 1 mSv; CTCA higher; DEXA very low.

  • Overtesting is a real risk

    Tumour markers, testosterone panels and broad genetic tests in well men often cause harm through false positives.

  • Testosterone testing

    Symptom-driven, morning sample, repeat before treatment. Not a routine screen.

  • Repeat cadence

    Annual for higher-risk; biennial for average risk from 40.

  • Insurer cover for follow-up

    Investigations for a positive screen are usually covered with a referral.

  • When to escalate

    Chest pain, blood in urine or severe headache need same-day specialist care.

Well-man screening in a healthy man is almost always self-pay. Investigations of specific symptoms or family history are usually covered by UK PMI with a referral.

Frequently asked

Everything we get asked about well-man health screen.

Quick answers on approach, recovery, risks and cost.

  • How much does a well-man screen cost in the UK?

    £350–£550 for a core screen; £500–£800 with cardiovascular add-ons; £1,100–£1,500 for an advanced level including calcium score, prostate MRI and DEXA.

  • Is a well-man screen covered by insurance?

    Screening in a well person is usually self-pay. Investigations of specific symptoms are typically covered by UK PMI with a referral.

  • From what age should I have a well-man screen?

    Many men start in their 30s for a baseline, adding cardiovascular imaging in their 40s and prostate MRI where PSA or family history dictates.

  • Should I have a PSA test?

    PSA testing is a shared decision. We share false-positive rates, biopsy risks and the mpMRI-first pathway per NICE NG131 before you consent, so the choice is informed.

  • Do I really need tumour markers?

    Beyond PSA, tumour markers in a well man are usually not recommended - they cause more false alarms than early cancer detections.

  • How long does the appointment take?

    Half a day for most packages, allowing consultation, examination, bloods and imaging in one visit.
