In government or in private corporations these are anxious times, especially for leaders. Making sure that they’re in good health is a priority for sound business management. It’s just plain common sense.
That’s why more and more government and corporate principals are taking advantage of the pro-active comprehensive wellness program for individuals and families at La Vie Executive Health Centre two locations.
Since 2007, La Vie, under the direction of Dr. Hassan Sannoufi, MD, CCFP-EM has been a leader in preventive medicine. Also known as risk reduction, the center’s approach is to work with patients to maintain good health and to reduce or eliminate the threat of cancer, cardiovascular disease and other ailments as well as identifying signs and symptoms of aging and implementing personalized plans for disease prevention, modification and reverse aging process.
Our physicians will conduct a two hour wellness/preventive assessment to provide you with the best care possible and the time you may need to discuss all of your medical concerns.
The La Vie medical assessment completed with state-of-the art equipment is much more than “just a physical”. It includes a comprehensive review of all previous medical history health care records, review of family history, a comprehensive blood work, stress testing, heart, hearing, and vision tests, a comprehensive diet and fitness assessment and a detailed physical exam conducted by Canada’s leading physicians and (if needed) an electronic second opinion from physicians at global facilities such as the Mayo Clinic and Harvard Affiliated Hospitals.
“All too often more attention is paid to automobile maintenance than to protection of personal health,” says Dr. Sannoufi. “Our ultimate goal is to detect early any medical alerts before a medical problem has presented itself. Some of these alerts may be missed by a routine medical examination. Our patients say we are giving them good value for their money.”
The benefits of the La Vie wellness program are numerous:
- access to a team of leading edge medical practitioners and equipment;
- Unique and proactive approach that focuses on early detection, prevention and reverse aging.
- assessments and testing under one roof, eliminating the need to visit other clinics for blood work,
- diet assessment using the state-of-the-art Inbody machine, fitness assessment and other tests;
- by detecting illnesses at an early stage busy patients avoid multiple visits to other doctors, saving valuable time and money.
