The best executive medical is not the longest list of tests or the most expensive scan, it is the deepest assessment read by one doctor as a single connected picture, delivered in a half-day that respects a working calendar. That is what the Executive Body Scan and the Executive Health Programme are built to be.

A fit to fly certificate is a doctor's formal confirmation that you are medically safe to travel by air, and airlines take them seriously because the cabin is a medical environment. Pressurised to the equivalent of 5,000 to 8,000 feet of altitude, cabin air carries less oxygen than sea level, gases in the body expand, and immobility raises clot risk, which is why carriers ask for clearance in defined situations.

A surprising amount of modern life runs on a doctor's signature, and the NHS has formally stepped back from providing it. GP practices are under no obligation to complete private paperwork, most now decline or quote waits of weeks for work that is not NHS care, and that leaves a long list of documents people need quickly and cannot get.

The home visit never stopped being the best way to see certain patients, medicine simply stopped offering it, and London has quietly rebuilt it as a private service because the need never went anywhere. The person too unwell to sit in a waiting room but not unwell enough for hospital. The elderly parent for whom the journey is the illness. The child with a fever at seven in the evening.

Stress, silent heart disease and metabolic risk hide easily in high performers. A doctor-led guide to why busy executives skip screening, what they miss, and how to catch it in time.

The reason longevity testing has exploded is that the science finally caught up with an old frustration. For decades a "normal" blood test meant a handful of markers, cholesterol, glucose, a liver enzyme or two, read against a population range and declared fine. The problem is that "not yet ill" and "ageing well" are not the same thing, and the standard panel was built to detect the first, not to measure the second.

Two people born on the same day can be a decade apart on the inside. Chronological age counts the years since your birth. Biological age tries to measure something more useful, how worn your body actually is, how fast you are ageing, and how much of that trajectory you can still change.

Fertility is the one area of health where the information arrives latest and matters most. Most people learn about their own fertility only when they start trying to conceive, which for many is years after the point at which knowing would have changed their decisions.

Iron deficiency is the most common nutritional deficiency in the world and one of the most undertreated causes of exhaustion in London, and the numbers that define it are worth knowing.

Most sexually transmitted infections cause no symptoms at all, which is the single most important fact in sexual health. Around seven in ten women and half of men with chlamydia notice nothing, gonorrhoea and syphilis, both at some of the highest levels England has recorded in decades, frequently announce themselves only through the damage they leave, and HIV caught early is a managed condition with normal life expectancy while HIV caught late is not.

Tiredness is the commonest symptom brought to doctors, and the system built to investigate it gives it ten minutes. The honest medicine is that persistent fatigue has a checklist, and most of it is found in blood. Iron deficiency, the most common nutritional deficiency in the world, drains energy long before it becomes anaemia, with ferritin below 30 marking depleted stores and symptoms frequently present below 50, especially in menstruating women.

Around 20 percent of men over 50 may have symptomatic low testosterone, yet only around 1 percent are diagnosed and treated, and the gap has been filled by a subscription TRT industry that too often runs the process backwards, marketing first, finger-prick kit second, prescription by post third.

The average NHS menopause consultation is ten minutes long, three quarters of clinicians report no regular menopause training, and specialist NHS clinics carry waits measured in months, which is why so many women now manage the most disruptive hormonal transition of their lives privately.

Seborrhoeic keratoses are the commonest skin growths of adult life, the raised, waxy, warty-looking lesions that appear from the forties onward and multiply with age, often described as looking stuck on to the skin. They are completely benign, they are not caused by sun damage alone or by anything you did wrong, they can be tan, brown, grey or black, and by the sixties most people have at least one and many have dozens.

Two facts should shape every decision about mole removal. First, most moles are entirely harmless collections of pigment cells, and removing one for cosmetic or practical reasons, catching on clothing, razors, jewellery, is a short procedure under local anaesthetic with excellent results when the technique is matched to the mole.
