Screenings > Fatigue Health Check
Did you know that one in eight UK adults reports experiencing daily fatigue?
With increasing daily demands, viral diseases affecting energy levels, and the stress of recent years, fatigue has become a growing and debilitating concern, making a fatigue health check all the more important.
Our clinics provide same-day appointments, both in-person and virtual, at two convenient Central London locations, delivering exceptional care and a wide range of treatment options.
It can be challenging to seek help when experiencing tiredness and fatigue. Sometimes, expressing how you feel is difficult, and responses such as “sleep better” or “drink more water” may not be helpful.
While your lifestyle does impact our energy levels, fatigue can be more than just normal tiredness for some individuals. It affects all aspects of life and can feel like a constant weight, holding us back as we try to move forward.
One patient described it as ‘constantly walking in mud,’ a sentiment echoed by many others. If you feel like you are walking in mud, reach out so we can help uncover the cause. We offer transparent pricing and over 26 years of experience.
If you have experienced a gradual decline in energy and an increased frequency of fatigue, our doctors aim to diagnose fatigue through a comprehensive approach. This includes conducting a detailed medical history and physical examination.
After our initial assessment, we conduct targeted tests based on suspected causes, including blood tests for anaemia, thyroid issues, infections, and inflammation. Identifying the precise cause of fatigue can be complex; however, these diagnostic measures enable doctors to pinpoint potential factors contributing to fatigue and tailor appropriate treatments accordingly.
Fatigue can arise from various common causes, including anaemia and iron deficiency, which affect oxygen transport and energy production. Thyroid dysfunction and low vitamin D levels can also contribute by disrupting metabolism and bone health, respectively. Viral illnesses like Epstein Barr Virus and influenza may lead to prolonged fatigue. Diabetes, nutritional deficiencies, and food intolerances such as lactose and fructose intolerance can impair energy levels and digestive health.
Poor gut health, stress, and burnout are additional factors impacting fatigue, alongside lifestyle choices that affect sleep, diet, and physical activity levels. Hormonal changes, such as those during menopause, can also play a significant role in fatigue experienced by individuals. Identifying these diverse factors is crucial for developing tailored approaches to manage and alleviate fatigue effectively.
During your Fatigue Health Check, an experienced doctor will listen to your concerns and discuss likely causes. They will be interested in understanding when you noticed your symptoms, what might have preceded them, your past medical history, your family history, your stresses and demands and your lifestyle.
They will then conduct tests that include all of the elements of our Platinum Blood Profile, which looks at the most common causes, from anaemia to iron deficiency to thyroid dysfunction and vitamin deficiencies.
Once your results are back (usually within 24 hours), they will call you to discuss them and explore the next steps. If you need treatment, this will be provided, and lifestyle advice will also be given to support your recovery.
Our private Genitourinary Medicine (GUM) and Sexual Health (SHC) clinics, conveniently located on Harley Street and in the City of London, provide comprehensive and confidential services.
We offer testing, advice, treatment, and ongoing management for sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Our experienced team of healthcare professionals ensures personalized care, addressing your specific needs and concerns with discretion and expertise.
A comprehensive physical examination is conducted to check for any physical signs that might indicate the cause of fatigue. This can include checking the heart, lungs, abdomen, thyroid, and lymph nodes, as well as assessing overall physical condition. Key components of the Fatigue Health Check include:

As an international visitor, I was very grateful for the prompt attention to my request for an appointment. Dr Ali was respectful and empathetic in regard to my condition and suggested further treatment, which I was able to organise for the next day. Both offices I attended treated me appropriately and I would recommend Harley Street Health Walk-in Clinics to anyone visiting London who requires medical attention.Posted on Trustindex![]()

Highly recommend City Walk-In Clinic Really pleased with my experience at City Walk-In Clinic. I booked a female hormone test because I wanted some answers about a few symptoms I'd been having, and the whole process was straightforward. The staff were welcoming, friendly and didn't make me feel rushed at all. The blood test was quick, and they explained everything clearly before taking the sample. My results came back sooner than I expected, and it was reassuring to have everything presented in a way that was easy to understand. I'd definitely use the clinic again and would recommend it to anyone looking for a private female hormone test. Professional service, lovely staff and an all round positive experience.Posted on Google![]()

I had a private gp appointment yesterday as my feet have been swelling every day over the past few days. So I booked an appointment with Dr Heather. Dr Heather explained the possible causes of the swelling, including the heat that we are currently experiencing in London. Recommended further investigation if the swelling persists, to identify the underlying issue rather than just making assumptions.Posted on Google![]()

I have used City Walk In Clinic as my go to place for routine blood tests. My recent full health check gave my doctor some clues that i may be approaching my menopause era. So my doctor has recommended that i do some tests to find out if indeed i am entering perimenopause, as the symptoms are there. Will be having my tests in the next few weeks. So glad i had a full health check, because all these symptoms were driving me crazy.Posted on Google![]()

I attended The Harley Street Walk/in centre in the City recently. I was able to book my appointment the day before for a blood test at a time that suited me. The booking process was straightforward. The doctor that conducted the venous draw was efficient and very pleasant. I have never had such a painless venous draw and I have had many! My appointment was at 5pm and I had my results before 8 am the following day. I will be very happy to book my tests here in the future. Thank you.Posted on Google![]()

I wanted a cholesterol check up and chose this clinic because it seemed to offer a competitive price for a detailed report. And so it turned out to be. Received a prompt and professional service at a price that was significantly less than other nearby providers in central London. I have now used it twice and would definitely recommend.Posted on Yell![]()
