==========================

The tests normally take 1 to 1.5 hr. It includes blood test, height/weight, BP, Chest X-ray etc and 10-15 mins Doctor's examination... Nothing special just routine....
Hope this helps....
 
Do they also check the eyes with and without glasses?
What about teeth?
Is it more complicated for Smokers?

no eye exam...no dental stuff...be prepared for the blood test though some ppl are afraid of the needles.éé
 
I am afraid of Needles... But will take the chance for it. :D
My concern is that - I never went to a doctor since I was 18 Years old - Now I am 32 and I feel good, I eat good, I am healthy. But have been smoking since I was 15. So, hopefully it will be all good. Thanks.

Seriously? Lungs too? You are just scaring me right?
 
I think I'm right in thinking that lungs is for TB and not smokers. But someone please correct me if I'm wrong
