A gastroscopy is an examination in which an endoscope (a flexible fiber-optic tube) is inserted through the mouth into the upper digestive system. This allows the doctor to examine the mucous membranes of the esophagus, stomach and duodenum (the first part of the small intestine).
As we age, it is especially important to undergo regular screening tests, as these help to identify potential diseases and risk factors in a timely manner. Our Senior screening package focuses on health problems that often occur in people over 65, with special emphasis on hearing, vision, bone health, the condition of the cardiovascular system, as well as assessing brain function and dementia.
Our pediatric annual cards are based on special criteria for different age groups of children.
Dementia is a syndrome characterized by mental decline, degeneration, and ultimately dementia, i.e., a retrogression from a certain cognitive and intellectual level. It is caused by the progression of a serious brain disease that impairs memory, thinking, orientation, understanding, recognition and calculation skills, thus changing both personality and behavior. Dementia typically affects people over 60 years of age, but it can occur at a younger age. The main risk factors for dementia are certain chronic diseases – such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, kidney failure, obesity and other metabolic and hormonal diseases –, however the development of dementia is also closely linked to lifestyle.
With this summer’s record-breaking temperatures of 41°C, the public was urged to take extra precautions against sunburn caused by extreme UV radiation. For normal skin types, even 15-20 minutes’ exposure can lead to redness, increasing the risk of skin cancer. That’s why after the summer is the best time to have your annual mole screening. Early detection of malignant moles can be crucial, preventing potentially fatal metastasis.

By detoxing, we are not referring to various cleansing regimes, ’miracle pills’ or X-day courses of juice fasting, but primarily the regular consumption of foods that help our body’s own natural detoxification processes by supporting the liver, kidneys, and our gastrointestinal tract, as well as providing valuable nutrients for our body from which we can get into top form in a short time. In spring, countless such seasonal ingredients are available - check out what is good eat, according to Dr. Rose Private Hospital’s dietitian, Nóra Galló.
