Question: I completed my Online Health Assessment and my overall wellness score is 64%. Is it better to have a general body checkup in order to have the exact wellness result because some of the fields in assessment entered are not exact values.

Brief Answer: Yes... Detailed Answer: Hi, You need to repeat health check up periodically especially if you have past history / family history of medical illness. As far as health assessment score is concerned, it is advisable to fill in latest or at least the last 6 months values for better results. So do get the tests. However, please note that online health assessment is a broad gauge of your current health status. It is advisable to discuss with a live doctor if you have one or more health concerns. Hope this helps. Let me know if you need clarifications. Regards
