Prevention – Praxis Dr. med Winkler

Prevention is important!

In order to detect diseases as early as possible or even to avoid them, certain preventive medical check-ups are necessary. An overview of the useful investigations can be found here.

Check-Up 35 (every 3 years from the age of 35)

This includes a detailed discussion, physical and technical examinations, which the doctor deems necessary after the discussion (e.g. laboratory tests, urine diagnostics, ECG, sonography) and a final consultation.

Book Consultation.

Check-Up 18-35 (once)

Based on a detailed discussion, we evaluate your health risks and burdens and arrange for appropriate examinations and treatments in order to identify potential diseases at an early stage or to prevent them entirely.

Skin Cancer Screening (every 2 years from the age of 35)

A head-to-toe examination is performed to detect skin cancer as early as possible. Since the scalp, face and nails are also examined closely, you should avoid make-up and nail polish and not wear an elaborate hairstyle.

Bowel Cancer Screening (every 1-2 years from the age of 50)

A stool sample gets examined to see if it contains non-visible blood. This can indicate bowel cancer. If blood is detected in the stool, a colonoscopy follows to clarify the cause.

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Screening (once for men over the age of 65)

The diameter of the abdominal aorta is measured with an ultrasound device. The aim is to discover large bulges in the vessel in good time before they rupture and become life-threatening.
