Which hospital in Nairobi does comprehensive wellness checks at a reasonable price?

Guys

Tweeting me "Following" doesn't work like it does on FB. If you want to see the replies, favorite or bookmark the tweet then come back later.

Thanks to @Thunderthighz_ I called MP-Shah. They have a comprehensive package for 19,999. I didn't capture everything but here's a list:
- Total blood count
- Kidney function test
- Blood sugar / diabetes
- Cholesterol
- Blood group
- Micronutrients (kina potassium etc)

- Urine test
- Uric acid
- Pap smear
- ECG
- Thyroid function test

A consultation with a G.P, opthalmologist, and dentist. Results come out next day, except the pap smear that takes 3 days.

If you have experience with other hospitals, share the price and list of tests, I'll add them on the thread.

For MP-Shah, you don't need to book an appointment but don't take breakfast on the morning of the visit.

Folks asking about insurance. I've done Step 1 for you. Take the next two steps:
2. Call the hospital you like ask them if they take insurance
3. Call your insurer / refer to your policy to see if wellness checks are covered.

Guys. Men especially, please don't check into this thread to ask silly questions.
