The Georgetown VIP Health Check is part of the continuing tradition of Georgetown University Hospital’s reputation of excellence in healthcare and belief that preventative care is a wise investment. The VIP Health Check is a thorough determination of your health status with a customized wellness program for your continued good health.
Georgetown ’s physician team highly recommends this
annual series of tests and examinations.
The Health Check assures you an experienced physician team of world-renowned specialists, cutting-edge technology, personal services and confidentiality.
Your choice of either the Gold or Silver Health Check will provide a complete panel of tests and examinations requiring that you spend at least one day with us. Additional tests, such as a Sleep Assessment or Plastic Surgery consult, can be accommodated in consultation with your Health Check Team. At your exit interview, your physician will provide a preliminary summary of findings with recommendations and referrals for further consultation, if necessary. You will be mailed your Georgetown Wellness Report—our guideline and recommendations for your continued good health and lifestyle, detailing all results and indications.
For more information or to schedule an appointment, contact our nurse counselors. Call (202) 444-5500 or e-mail us at VIPHealthCheck@gunet.georgetown.edu.
