Essential Health MOT vs remote and budget screens

Entry-level rivals are run remotely or in hotel rooms. Many are a video call with a "health adviser", not a doctor, finished off with a home testing kit and an app. The Essential Health MOT at The Health Screening Clinic, 117a Harley Street, is £495 and puts an experienced doctor in the room, with a hands-on examination, an ECG and a blood panel of 60+ biomarkers.

Why choose this package?

Data without a doctor is just numbers. The Essential tier bridges the gap between diagnostic tests and true medical care. It includes a full physical examination and results review with an experienced Harley Street doctor, something a standalone test simply cannot match.

Preparation

No fasting required, comfortable clothing, well-hydrated.

Who is this for?

Ideal for men under 40 or those over 40 seeking a basic health screening. This package covers essential biomarkers including kidney and liver function, cholesterol, and diabetes risk, providing a clear baseline for your future health. Same-day appointments available for urgent peace of mind.

Duration

Please allow 45 minutes for your appointment.

Medical Team

Your results will be reviewed and explained to you personally by a senior GP, usually the same doctor that conducted the assessment. Any specific abnormalities can be referred into our network of excellent Harley Street Consultants if requested.

Patient Feedback

What recent screening patients say

“Excellent service, really efficient, full check included with the package and very kind and patient staff members, really great medical clinic. Thank you for your service.”

Sofia, Oct 2026

“By far the best medical service I have received. Exceptionally fast, extremely knowledgeable doctor and the best medical practice I’ve been to globally.”

Dom R., Sept 2026

“For what is a potentially terrifying experience of being screened for the first time, not only did this clinic make me feel very safe and calm but Dr. Bakhtiar was kind, wise and helpful. I found it to be a very good experience. Thank you so much.”

Adam S., Aug 2026

Why patients choose us

Screening that doesn’t stop at the report

The Essential Health MOT works the same way as every tier we offer. A health screening is only worth paying for if someone takes responsibility for what it finds. That is how we have worked at 117a Harley Street since 1984.

A doctor sees you, every time

Every Health MOT, from the £495 Essential upwards, includes a face-to-face examination and consultation with a Harley Street doctor, and a doctor who goes through your results with you. If all you buy is a blood test, a blood test is all you get.

Who will review my results?

If we find something, we know who you should see

We have worked alongside the best specialists in the country for decades, and our doctors know theirs. We refer you directly to the right person, we can get you seen quicker, and we never charge for the referral. We are independent, so there is no in-house department we have to send you to.

How we choose your specialist

Everything in one visit, at one price

A local medical centre will often send you to Harley Street for the MRI, the ultrasound or the specialist opinion anyway. We do it in one visit, at one price, and follow-up is included in every tier. After specialist treatment we can repeat your screening, or run targeted tests, to see how you are doing.

Full body MOT with scans

It needn’t be stressful

Travelling in? Make a day of it. Everything can be done in one visit, or split it: your medical on a Friday, dinner out, then your MRI on the Saturday. Come with your partner and do it together, or one of you shops while the other has a scan. Once you are home, we can go through your results by video or telephone.

Visiting from outside London

Before you book anywhere, ask

  • Which doctor will I see in person?
  • Which doctor will review my results?
  • If something is wrong, can you refer me, and to whom?
  • Is follow-up included in the price?

If a provider can’t answer, you are buying a blood test, not a health screening. When you pay privately, you should expect the highest standard of care.
