The popularity of Saga's healthcare products has shown us how important good health is for
today's over 50s. We are therefore delighted to introduce Saga Health Screening, a service that
makes private CT scanning more accessible to you.
Modern CT scanners can 'look inside' the human body and potentially spot the early signs of
illness before any symptoms become obvious. This early diagnosis might in turn make medical
intervention or switching to a healthier lifestyle more effective. We aim to offer you an effective,
reassuring service at comfortable, modern centres conveniently situated around the UK.
Saga Health Screening is offered in association with Lifescan, the leading Uk provider of
private CT assessments. Since its launch in May 2006, thousands of people have taken advantage of Saga Health
Screening and achieved real peace of mind. This has proved to be an especially appreciated service, with 96% of customers
who return our feedback questionnaire expressing their overall satisfaction with it.
In at least two instances, Saga Health Screening has proved a possible lifesaver:
"I found I had bowel cancer but had no symptoms. If I had not gone to Saga Health Screening
I would have been in big trouble. I am pleased to say my operation was a success and I have since
had the wonderful news that I am all clear."
"Before taking the scan I had no symptoms whatsoever of any heart problems. I played golf, walked frequently,
rode a bicycle and felt perfectly well. At 57 years of age I was feeling quite fit. The scan identified high levels
of calcium in my cardiac arteries, and the report recommended I sought the advice of a consultant cardiologist.
Having seen the cardiologist, I had an angiogram and then heart by-pass surgery – all within 5 weeks or so of the
scan. I am so grateful that I took the scan and feel that at the very least it avoided me having a heart attack
and at the best saved my life."
