A Distinctive Experience
Medifast’s new one-stop centre provides efficient, high-quality health checks for busy Hongkongers in the heart of Central
We all know that when it comes to health, prevention is better than cure. It’s a saying that underpins cultural beliefs about maintaining good health around the world. With Hongkongers’ busy lifestyles, however, it can be difficult just to eat right, exercise properly and get enough goodquality sleep, let alone consult a doctor regularly to help ward off potential problems. The city’s fast-paced environment and poor air quality mean that we all potentially face health issues such as fatigue, poor sleep, high blood pressure, high blood sugar, high cholesterol, obesity, eczema and gastrointestinal problems.
Fortunately help is at hand, in the form of the new Central Medical Centre from preventive healthcare specialist Medifast. A one-stop health check centre located conveniently in Des Voeux Road Central, it offers a full range of professional medical services to VIP clients, efficiently and privately in a stylish environment.
Visitors to the centre can be confident of the quality of services offered by a company with 25 years of experience in providing VIP medical check-ups in Hong Kong and overseas. Medifast was established in 1991 by Hongson and Gloria Lee in Canada, where it pioneered the concept of providing mobile medical check-ups, originally for insurance companies but subsequently also for individuals and for corporations looking to ensure the well-being of their staff.
Medifast was established in Hong Kong 20 years ago, introducing the concept of mobile pre-insurance check-ups to the city. In 2002 it opened its first medical centre here, in Mong Kok, following it up in 2005 with a 20,000sqft healthcare and wellness centre in Causeway Bay. The new location in Central is convenient for companies and individuals to have their health comprehensively checked and assessed in the city’s central business district.
The centre is equipped with a range of state-of-the-art medical equipment, including a Digital Imaging Diagnostic Centre that uses advanced imaging technologies to make detailed and accurate diagnoses. It will also focus on new services that includes tests for sleep quality, early cancer screening and DNA genetic testing, in addition to functional medicine.
The Central Medical Centre offers efficient booking along with fast, reliable and professional service throughout. All visitors to the centre receive a comprehensive health report featuring a detailed analysis of their health and lifestyle. There are six VIP rooms where clients can relax in absolute privacy. It’s an exclusive place for health-conscious Hongkongers to ensure they’re fit to face the future, all within a modern, spacious and welcoming environment.
