Onsite Pathology
Onsite pathology, also known as point-of-care pathology or intraoperative pathology, refers to the practice of performing diagnostic pathology procedures and analysis at or near the location where patient care is being delivered, rather than sending samples to a centralized laboratory for testing. This approach allows for more immediate and real-time assessment of tissue samples, which can be particularly valuable in surgical settings and emergency situations.
Preventative Health
Preventive health, also known as preventive medicine or preventative healthcare, refers to measures taken to prevent illness, injury, or disease before they occur or before they worsen. This approach to healthcare emphasizes promoting health and wellness, identifying risk factors for disease, and implementing interventions to reduce those risks and improve overall health outcomes.
Travel Health

The primary goal of travel medicine is to promote and protect the health of travelers before, during, and after their trips.
Skin Cancer Screening
Skin cancer screening is a process of examining the skin for suspicious growths, lesions, or changes that may indicate the presence of skin cancer. Early detection through regular screenings can lead to timely diagnosis and treatment, improving outcomes for individuals with skin cancer.
Chronic Disease Management
Chronic disease management refers to the coordinated efforts and strategies employed by healthcare providers and patients to effectively manage long-term medical conditions, also known as chronic diseases or non-communicable diseases (NCDs).

Immunisations
Immunizations, also known as vaccinations or inoculations, are medical interventions that help protect individuals from infectious diseases by stimulating the body’s immune system to produce an immune response. This response prepares the body to fight off future exposure to the disease-causing organism, preventing illness or reducing its severity.
Audiometry
Audiometry is a branch of audiology that focuses on evaluating a person’s ability to hear sounds. It involves the use of specialized equipment to measure hearing sensitivity across different frequencies and intensity levels. The primary tool used in audiometry is the audiometer, which generates tones at various frequencies and volumes.
