Amcal launches new health check

Australian pharmacy retailer, Amcal, has launched a new comprehensive customer offer – Your Amcal Annual Health Check.

Now available for customers in-store at participating pharmacies, Your Amcal Annual Health Check is a comprehensive screening consultation designed to provide a cost-competitive, convenient solution for patients’ understanding of their overall health and wellness, from a qualified pharmacist.

Completed in a private consultation room, the screening assesses four key health metrics appropriate to overall health including body mass index, blood pressure, blood glucose and total cholesterol.

Upon receiving results in real-time, patients are provided with expert pharmacist recommendations, and a referral to a GP if needed.

Appointments can be made online and will cost $30 per health check.

Kurt O’Brien, Head of Amcal, says the new service reaffirms Amcal’s health service capabilities.

“Australians are more attuned to their health than ever before, and that’s why offering comprehensive health checks, completed in person and competitively priced, are crucial to meeting this growing demand,” said Mr O’Brien.

“This new offer will not only support more meaningful patient and pharmacist relationships but also reinforce Amcal’s wider in-pharmacy capabilities, including other health screening, medication management and prescription services.

“We’re looking forward to seeing new, and returning, customers take advantage of this unique, value-for-money offer,” added Mr O’Brien.
