==========================

The tests normally take 1 to 1.5 hr. It includes blood test, height/weight, BP, Chest X-ray etc and 10-15 mins Doctor's examination... Nothing special just routine....
Hope this helps....

Do they also check the eyes with and without glasses?
What about teeth?
Is it more complicated for Smokers?

I am afraid of Needles... But will take the chance for it. :D
My concern is that - I never went to a doctor since I was 18 Years old - Now I am 32 and I feel good, I eat good, I am healthy. But have been smoking since I was 15. So, hopefully it will be all good. Thanks.

I think I'm right in thinking that lungs is for TB and not smokers. But someone please correct me if I'm wrong
