Can Your Blood Sugar Be Normal While Your Insulin Is High?
When patients think about diabetes or metabolic health, they usually think of blood sugar. That is understandable: glucose is one
October 21, 2026
When was the last time you had a thorough health review, rather than visited a doctor because something was wrong? Many men feel perfectly healthy while conditions such as high blood pressure, raised cholesterol, diabetes or early metabolic changes develop without obvious warning signs. Some of these conditions only show symptoms when they become more serious, and then harder to treat and reverse.
At Harley Street Health Centre, our Wellman examinations look beyond immediate symptoms. Through detailed consultations, advanced investigations and personalised medical guidance, we help you understand your current health, identify relevant risk factors and make informed decisions about the future.
Whether you’re managing a demanding lifestyle, concerned about your family medical history or simply want greater clarity about your health, our experienced GPs provide the time and expertise to explore what matters to you.
A comprehensive health check should do more than provide a collection of blood test results. It should help you understand what those results mean.
Our Wellman screening is provided through The Optimal Health Assessment, combining a detailed medical consultation with physical examinations, laboratory investigations and specialist assessments. Your examination includes:
Once your investigations are complete, you’ll have a dedicated 30-minute consultation with your GP to discuss your results and agree on appropriate next steps.
Some of the most significant health risks affecting men can develop gradually, with few or no noticeable symptoms. Understanding these risks is an important part of preventative healthcare.
No single health assessment can diagnose or exclude every medical condition. Your GP will interpret the findings alongside your symptoms, history and clinical examination.
It’s common to put off a medical appointment when you’re busy, feeling reasonably well, or unsure whether your symptoms matter. However, waiting for noticeable symptoms isn’t always the best approach, particularly for conditions that can develop silently.
A Wellman examination provides dedicated time to discuss concerns that might otherwise be overlooked, from persistent tiredness and changes in physical performance to cardiovascular risk and family medical history. It also offers an opportunity to review how work, stress, sleep, nutrition and exercise may be influencing your health.
The aim isn’t to perform as many tests as possible. It’s to understand your individual circumstances and use relevant clinical findings to guide meaningful decisions about your care.
No single age or set of circumstances makes comprehensive screening appropriate for every man. However, a detailed medical review may be worth considering if:

You will be seen by one of our friendly doctors or trained clinicians.
Your Wellman examination begins with a 60-minute GP consultation. This gives us time to review your medical history, family history, current symptoms, lifestyle, and any specific concerns you would like to address.
Your assessment includes physical examinations, laboratory investigations and specialist assessments. These provide information about different aspects of your health, from cardiovascular and metabolic markers to respiratory function and physical well-being.
Some investigations may require preparation or additional appointments.
You’ll receive a detailed medical report and a 30-minute GP results consultation, available by telephone or in person. Your doctor will explain the findings, discuss their significance and identify whether further investigations, treatment or monitoring may be appropriate.
Your package includes a complimentary repeat Silver blood profile within six months, allowing you to review selected health markers over time. Your GP will also provide personalised recommendations to help you make informed decisions about your ongoing health.
