An annual health check for busy people in Dubai
Most people mean to get a yearly check-up and don't, because it costs half a day. With Baseline a nurse comes to your home or office for a short draw, and the review is a video call.
Why test now
A busy year is exactly when health slips without you noticing. Late meals, travel, less sleep and less training don't show up as symptoms at first, but they often show up in your blood.
Testing at the same time every year, say each January, gives you a clear year-on-year comparison. Your results stay in the Baseline app, so next year's screen is read against this one.
- You last had a full blood test more than a year ago
- Work leaves no time for a trip to a lab
- You travel a lot or work long hours
- You want a yearly reference point, not a one-off
What the screen checks
The full screen. 122 parameters across ten systems: hormones, liver, heart, kidneys, blood sugar, blood count and inflammation, vitamins, iron, cancer markers, and gut, stress and allergy.
Stress and sleep. Cortisol, magnesium and vitamin D, often out of range in people working long hours indoors.
Metabolic health. HbA1c, fasting insulin and a lipid profile. These tend to drift slowly with desk work and travel.
How to prepare
- Book an early morning slot at home or a first-thing slot at the office.
- Fast overnight with water only. Coffee can wait until after the draw.
- Stop biotin supplements for 2-3 days beforehand.
- Keep taking any regular medicine and mention it at your review.
The screen or a consultation
Book the screen for your yearly check
One draw, 122 parameters and a video review with your consultant. Most people need nothing more for a yearly check.
Start with a consultation if you want to change something
If there's something you want to work on, like weight, energy or sleep, start with a consultation. Your consultant will build the screen into a program if it fits.
The consultation is AED 350, credited against your program if one is agreed within 30 days.
How the home test works
Baseline’s full blood screen covers 122 parameters across ten systems from one home draw, for AED 850, with results in 48 hours.
- Nurse comes to you. A licensed phlebotomist visits your home or office, 7 days a week, anywhere in the UAE.
- Accredited lab. Samples are processed by a CAP-accredited laboratory (College of American Pathologists), also accredited to ISO 15189, against clinical reference ranges.
- Reviewed with you. Results land in your account in Baseline format, and your consultant walks you through them on video, never a PDF dumped in your inbox.
Ranges are the lab’s own. Your consultant goes through what they mean with you.
Your results arrive in the Baseline app, every marker against the lab’s own range, checked by your consultant before you see them. The values above are an example.
Questions
- How long does the home or office visit take?
- The draw itself takes a few minutes. The nurse comes at the time you book, 7 days a week, anywhere in the UAE.
- How often should I have a full blood test?
- Once a year suits most adults. Your consultant may suggest sooner if a result is borderline.
- Will I get a report or a call?
- Both. Results land in the Baseline app within about 48 hours, and your consultant goes through them with you on video.
- Can I compare this year's results with last year's?
- Yes, if you tested with Baseline before. Your results stay in your account, so each year's screen is read against the last.
Tests on the screen

Find out whether this is appropriate for you
Reading is not a diagnosis. A consultation goes through your history with you and tells you plainly whether a program fits, including when it does not. AED 350, credited in full against your first order.
