| Quick answer Full body checkups in Dubai typically range from around AED 250 for a basic blood-panel screening to AED 6,000+ for executive and platinum packages. Most comprehensive packages sit between AED 800 and AED 1,500, and many insurance plans cover an annual preventive screening. The price reflects scope: how many biomarkers, whether imaging and specialist consultations are included, and how personalised the interpretation is. A longevity-grade assessment (like My-Health’s 360°) goes further — 120+ biomarkers, VO₂ max and biological-age testing, physician-led and delivered at home. |
A full body checkup is one of the smartest things you can do for your health — but ‘full body checkup’ in Dubai can mean anything from a AED 250 blood panel to a multi-thousand-dirham executive assessment. This guide explains what the price actually depends on, what you get at each tier, and how to choose the right level for you.
How much does a full body checkup cost in Dubai?
Across Dubai, prices generally fall into these bands (they vary by clinic and by what is included):
| Tier | Typical price (AED) | What’s usually included |
| Basic screening | ~250–500 | Core blood panel, urine test, blood pressure, brief doctor consultation |
| Comprehensive | ~800–1,500 | Wider bloods (thyroid, vitamins, HbA1c, lipids), often ECG and basic imaging, consultation |
| Executive / platinum | ~2,000–6,000+ | Extensive bloods, imaging (ultrasound/X-ray, sometimes CT/MRI), specialist reviews, cancer-marker screening |
| Longevity-grade | Varies (concierge) | 120+ biomarkers, VO₂ max, biological-age/epigenetic testing, body composition, physician-led plan |
As a rule, the more the package tests, images and personalises, the more it costs — and the more useful it can be, provided the results are properly interpreted.
What determines the price?
- Number of biomarkers. A basic panel might test 15–30 markers; a comprehensive or longevity panel tests 100+.
- Imaging. Adding ultrasound, ECG, X-ray, or advanced scans (CT, MRI) raises the cost significantly.
- Consultations. Specialist reviews and a proper results consultation add value — and price.
- Personalisation. Whether you get a generic printout or a physician-built action plan makes a big difference.
- Convenience. At-home, concierge delivery costs more than a walk-in clinic — but saves considerable time.
Does insurance cover it?
Many major insurance plans in Dubai include an annual preventive health screening, though coverage varies by policy and provider. It is worth checking your plan before booking, as a covered basic or comprehensive screening can be a cost-effective starting point. More advanced longevity assessments are typically self-funded.
Cheap vs comprehensive: what are you really getting?
A AED 250 checkup can be genuinely useful for catching obvious issues — but it is a snapshot of a limited set of markers, usually with a brief consultation. The risk is false reassurance: a clear basic panel does not mean everything is fine. A comprehensive or longevity-grade assessment looks at far more, interprets patterns across systems, and turns the results into a plan. For a preventive or longevity-minded person, depth and interpretation are where the real value lies.
Beyond a standard checkup: the longevity approach
A conventional checkup asks ‘is anything wrong today?’. A longevity-grade assessment asks ‘what could go wrong, and how do I stay ahead of it?’. My-Health’s 360° health assessment covers 120+ biomarkers plus VO₂ max, biological-age testing and body composition — physician-led and delivered to your home in Dubai, with a plan rather than just numbers.

How to choose the right checkup
- If you just want a basic screen and it is covered by insurance, start there — but do not treat a clear result as a full clearance.
- If you are over 40, have a family history of disease, or want a real baseline, choose a comprehensive or longevity-grade assessment.
- Prioritise checkups that include a proper physician consultation and a clear action plan — interpretation matters more than the raw number of tests.
