“Wanted an in depth health check--Ahead delivered with a smooth MRI+blood check and very detailled and action packed report. Highly recommended!”

“Great experience, MRI + blood test, comprehensive reporting and tracking over time, and direct contact with real medical doctors to address any questions you might have.”

“Fles to Zürich to get Ahead's MRI + blood test.”

Both Ahead's team and the partner's were super professional, and guided me step-by-step through the experience. The scan was short, blood draw uneventful, and I was in time to make my plane back. I really liked the report itself: simple to understand, with enough actual clinical depth.

“Thank you, Ahead Health, I highly recommend your services and we surely stay in touch (hopefully only for preventative reasons!)”

As an enthusiastic athlete and simply a woman in her early 30s, I've finally come to realization that our bodies and health definitely need our support along the life journey we embark on as one. Just before turning 33 and running my 7th marathon, I couldn't help but checking my blood as I've been feeling rather fatigued and also mindful of yet again another birthday and a race. It was so simple! Ahead Health website is clear, user friendly and what I especially appreciate, not overpowering with things one doesn't need (aka a million of extra products where you feel like at a sales market). From the main page to choosing what one is looking for and booking an appointment - easy and with a very little time spent. Simple instructions on what not to do and what to do. Thank you, Ahead Health, I highly recommend your services and we surely stay in touch (hopefully only for preventative reasons!) Tatiana

“Amazing experience”

“Amazing service”

I visited AHEAD HEALTH on Wednesday for an advanced blood test, the entire process was quick, seamless, and far more convenient than going through a doctor's office. The results were delivered within 48 hours, along with …

“Super easy and a very detailed and well explained report.”

I'll come back to see the improvements. 100% recommended.

“I can honestly say it was one of the most impressive and reassuring medical experiences I've had.”

My name is Anastasia, and I recently visited Ahead Clinic in Geneva for a full health check-up, including blood tests and a full-body MRI. I can honestly say it was one of the most impressive and reassuring medical experiences I've had. …

Questions we could help with

Why am I always tired?

Iron deficiency or thyroid imbalance may cause tiredness. The blood test checks for both.

Why does it take so long to recover after workouts?

Low iron stores, vitamin D or inflammation may slow your recovery. The blood test checks all three.

Why do I keep catching colds?

Immune-related biomarkers like white blood cell counts could reveal if your defenses are low.

Is it just the winter blues, or something more?

Low vitamin D can affect mood and energy. The test checks your levels.

Frequently asked questions

Blood test results are typically available within 5–7 business days after your blood draw. You'll receive a notification when your interactive report is ready in the Ahead portal.

If you booked a combined check-up (MRI + blood), both sets of results are delivered together in a single report. If you booked the Omega-3 & 6 add-on, the analysis may take longer, so your combined report may take up to 10 business days.

Once your results are ready, you can schedule a follow-up consultation with one of our physicians to discuss them in detail. This consultation is included in the price of check-up packages. See our report page to get an idea of what to expect.

Yes. We recommend fasting for 8–12 hours before your blood draw (water is fine and encouraged). This ensures accurate results for fasting glucose, insulin, triglycerides, and other metabolic markers.

During the fasting period:

Drink 2–3 glasses of water to stay well hydrated (this also makes the blood draw easier)
Avoid food, coffee, tea, juice, and other beverages besides water
Continue taking any prescribed medications unless your doctor advises otherwise
Avoid intense exercise for 24 hours before the test

If you have a morning appointment, the easiest approach is to stop eating after dinner the night before and drink water in the morning.

If fasting isn't possible for medical reasons (e.g. diabetes), please let us know when booking and we'll advise on the best approach.

A standard GP blood test in Switzerland typically covers a basic panel: blood count, cholesterol, blood sugar, and sometimes liver and kidney values. It usually includes 10–15 markers and is ordered reactively when symptoms are present.

The Ahead Advanced blood test is a preventive screening panel with 80+ biomarkers designed to catch early warning signs before symptoms appear. Key differences:

Broader scope: we include cardiovascular risk markers (ApoB, hs-CRP), metabolic health (HbA1c, HOMA-IR, Insulin), a full thyroid panel (TSH, fT3, fT4), and more, most of which are not part of a routine GP check.
Proactive approach: our panel is designed for preventive screening of healthy individuals, not diagnosis of existing symptoms.
Detailed reporting: your results come in an interactive online report with clear reference ranges, trend tracking, and personalized recommendations.
Physician review: every result is reviewed by a physician who can explain findings and suggest next steps. A follow-up consultation is included with check-up packages.
Optional add-ons: you can extend your panel with hormones (women) / hormones (men), B-vitamins, or Omega-3 & 6.

For a deeper comparison, see our article on how a preventive blood test compares to a standard check-up. You can also explore the full list of biomarkers we test.

Your blood test shows how your body is working: heart and metabolic health, inflammation, organ function and nutrients. A full-body MRI shows how your organs look. It can see things a blood test can't detect directly, such as tumours, aneurysms, fatty liver or disc protrusions, which often cause no symptoms for a long time.

Adding an MRI is especially worth it if:

You're 40 or older and want a thorough, all-round check-up.
Cancer, heart attacks, strokes or aneurysms run in your family.

Our Advanced check-up combines both: our blood test with 80+ biomarkers plus a full-body MRI, with no radiation and no contrast dye. More about the full-body MRI

No, please keep taking your prescribed medications as usual – with a few exceptions on the morning of your blood draw. This allows us to assess your health in the context of your real-life routine.

Please include what you take and the dosage in your questionnaire so our medical team can interpret your results accurately.

On the morning of your test, please pause:

Iron supplements: stop 24–48 hours before your draw – iron supplements temporarily raise circulating serum iron and can skew your results. Resume your usual dose right after the blood draw. (Fasting also matters for this – see our iron biomarker page for details.)
Biotin (vitamin B7 – e.g. in hair, skin and nail supplements): at a standard dose (up to 5 mg/day), stop 48–72 hours before your test. It can interfere with several hormone measurements, including thyroid tests, causing falsely low TSH and falsely high free T4/T3. If you take high-dose biotin (over 5 mg/day – e.g. prescribed for hair/nail growth or another prescribed use), we generally recommend extending this to 3–7 days beforehand. Please don't do this without speaking to the doctor who prescribed it, and let us know in the medical questionnaire before your check-up. A standard multivitamin is fine to continue.
Thyroid medication (e.g. levothyroxine): take it after your blood draw, not before – taking it beforehand causes a temporary spike in free T4 that affects your baseline result.

Also worth mentioning in your questionnaire:

Creatine: may influence markers related to kidney function.
Finasteride or dutasteride (e.g. for hair loss or an enlarged prostate): these lower PSA by about half, so if your check-up includes PSA (in the Pro package or as an add-on), flag this in your questionnaire so your result is interpreted correctly.
