Which appointments should you start the year with at MedicalES? Medical Guide for 2026
At the start of the year, recommended checkups include a basic package for a general assessment of your health, aimed at the early detection of various conditions and the monitoring of vital signs—an excellent opportunity for an annual checkup.
Here are the types of consultations you can schedule at MedicalES centers early this year:
Cardiology
A cardiology consultation is recommended for individuals experiencing clinical symptoms that may indicate various cardiovascular conditions: high blood pressure, hypertensive crises, angina pectoris, excessive fatigue, abnormal heart sounds, palpitations, dizziness, shortness of breath, heart murmur, and circulatory disorders.
At MedicalES centers, cardiology specialists are trained to perform routine evaluations and advanced diagnostic tests, such as CT angiography and cardiac MRI, which are necessary for our patients to properly manage their cardiovascular health.
Dermatology
A dermatology consultation is an essential preventive checkup for the health of the skin, hair, and nails, helping to detect serious conditions such as skin cancer early and to effectively treat problems like acne, eczema, irritations, or suspicious lesions, even if there are no obvious symptoms. It involves taking a medical history, conducting a thorough clinical examination, and establishing a personalized monitoring or treatment plan.
At MedicalES clinics, patients receive dermatology and venereology consultations from doctors who specialize in the evaluation and management of skin conditions, using modern protocols and high-precision diagnostic equipment. Each consultation is tailored to the patient’s needs and aims to quickly and accurately identify skin problems.
Ultrasound
- Abdominal ultrasound —a noninvasive, painless imaging test that uses ultrasound waves to create real-time images of the internal organs in the abdomen (liver, spleen, pancreas, kidneys, gallbladder, aorta), and other structures, helping to quickly detect conditions (cysts, tumors, stones) and guide treatment. It is a safe, radiation-free method useful for diagnosing digestive, urological, and gynecological conditions.
- Pelvic ultrasound —a non-invasive, painless imaging test that uses ultrasound to visualize the organs in the pelvis (uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, bladder, and prostate in men), useful in detecting conditions such as cysts, fibroids, infections, or various infertility issues.
- Cardiac Ultrasound – Cardiac ultrasound is a non-invasive, painless imaging test that uses ultrasound waves to create real-time images of the heart’s structure and function, allowing the doctor to evaluate the chambers, valves, heart muscle, and blood flow. It is a standard method for diagnosing, monitoring, and screening for cardiovascular conditions, and it does not involve radiation.
Endocrinology
An endocrinology consultation can be a routine or follow-up visit with a specialist, which is essential for monitoring hormonal health, the early diagnosis of problems (thyroid disorders, diabetes, adrenal disorders), monitoring existing treatments (diabetes, osteoporosis, metabolic disorders), and preventing endocrine disorders (thyroid diseases, pituitary gland disorders, adrenal or parathyroid gland disorders, and disorders of the reproductive organs).
The process includes a medical history, a physical examination, a thyroid ultrasound, and, if necessary, blood tests or other specific tests.
Neurology
A neurological consultation involves a detailed discussion with the doctor (medical history), a physical examination focusing on reflexes, coordination, muscle strength, speech, and vision, followed by a recommendation for specific tests (MRI, EMG, Doppler) to diagnose any disorders of the nervous system. This is essential for monitoring chronic conditions (migraines, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis) and for the early detection of various neurological disorders.
The neurologists at MedicalES work closely with radiologists to provide patients with access to a wide range of diagnostic tests. The presence of these two complementary specialties within MedicalES centers ensures that patients receive an accurate diagnosis.
Ophthalmology
An ophthalmology consultation involves a comprehensive eye health checkup, including a vision test, measurement of intraocular pressure (for glaucoma), an examination of the fundus (for retinopathy and diabetes), and an analysis of the eye’s structures.
This is essential for the early detection of conditions (cataracts, glaucoma, diabetes, high blood pressure) and the prevention of vision loss, with specific recommendations regarding the frequency of checkups needed for children, adults, and patients at increased risk of developing eye conditions.
MedicalES specialists have access to the latest ophthalmological technology available on the market to provide the best possible care and medical outcomes for all patients.
DEXA Bone Densitometry
DEXA is an accurate, fast, and noninvasive medical imaging method, the gold standard for measuring bone mineral density (BMD) and diagnosing osteoporosis, assessing bone fragility and fracture risk using a very low dose of X-rays.
Early diagnosis of osteoporosis through DEXA bone densitometry is very important because there are now advanced methods for halting bone loss and, consequently, reducing the complications of the disease.
Rheumatology
A rheumatology consultation is a medical evaluation necessary for diagnosing and treating disorders of the musculoskeletal system (joints, bones, muscles, tendons) and autoimmune diseases such as arthritis, lupus, gout, and fibromyalgia—conditions that can cause pain, stiffness, inflammation, and limited movement.
Proper diagnosis and treatment of rheumatic diseases are essential for reducing the risk of various complications, such as chronic pain, joint deformities, loss of mobility, and, in extreme cases, irreversible damage to internal organs.
Following the consultation, the specialist provides a personalized treatment plan and recommends specific tests (lab tests, imaging).
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR)
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is an advanced imaging method that uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to create detailed images of organs, tissues, bones, and joints, providing an accurate diagnosis for various neurological, oncological, musculoskeletal, cardiac, and abdominal conditions without the use of X-rays.
At MedicalES clinics, specialists in computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging have access to state-of-the-art technology, which is the ideal solution for expanding clinical imaging capabilities.
Computed Tomography (CT)
Computed tomography (CT) is an advanced medical imaging test that uses X-rays at minimized doses to create detailed, cross-sectional images of organs, bones, blood vessels, and other internal structures, helping specialists quickly and accurately diagnose a wide range of conditions, from fractures and tumors to infections or vascular problems.
The start of the year is the ideal time to assess our overall health, with the goal of detecting potential health issues early and making necessary lifestyle adjustments. We look forward to welcoming you to our MedicalES clinics —dedicated to premium healthcare services—during this time to put this year’s most important resolution into practice: taking care of your health!
