MeNZ Medical Warrant of Fitness | $410
Full health check including blood tests.
Much like getting a WOF for your car, our Warrant of Fitness health check is aimed at men who are generally well, but want to make sure things are okay under the bonnet. With comprehensive blood tests completed before being seen and 90 minutes spent in clinic, there is plenty of time and information for clinical discussion.

More complex than a car - infinitely more valuable
You warrant your vehicle at least once a year to ensure it’s road worthy - why not get a comprehensive health check to make sure you’re well and on the right track?
Before the appointment
After making your booking, we’ll generate you a referral for a blood test to be completed before coming in on the day. This comprehensive 10-12 hour fasting blood test checks for a number of things including infection markers, blood abnormalities, prostate issues, liver function, kidney and thyroid issues, cholesterol and iron levels, blood sugar levels and diabetic markers. These are reviewed and discussed with you during your appointment.
On the day
On arrival there will be a urine sample to do, as well as a few forms to complete to get some background information.
The first 30 minutes is spent with a practice nurse. He will take your basic measurements - blood pressure, height, weight, vision etc. He’ll then ask you about your health history and your current lifestyle habits like exercise levels, diet, alcohol consumption and smoking status. This starts painting the picture for the doctor.
The last 60 minutes are spent with the doctor. He will go through the results of the blood tests with you, followed by a systematic review. This includes looking over your skin to check for any moles of concern, as well as a genital check and prostate examination (unless requested not to).
Other services like an ECG, liquid nitrogen, hearing tests and spirometry (lung function) are available and may be suggested by the doctor. We’ll do our best to fit these on they day if applicable, however if you think this may be required (or would like one of these tests for your own peace of mind), let us know when booking and we’ll make the extra time available. These extra services do have additional costs which we will advise.
After the appointment you will be provided with a written report to take home with you. We can also send this to your enrolled GP to have on your medical file if you wish. Alternatively, if you enjoy your time here, you’re welcome to enrol with us so that we can manage your ongoing health care.
Subsequent Warrant of Fitness bookings are discounted by $15 for our return patients.
Often, people simply want more time with the doctor, or have a loved one with health issues needing a thorough check up. We have patients attending our Warrant of Fitness from all over the South Island, who come back year after year.
No matter what your health care concerns are, we encourage you to make contact with the friendly team. We’ll discuss your unique situation and suggest what appointment might work best for you.
