Future Health Assessment
Understand your health today.
Know what matters for tomorrow.
Future Health is a comprehensive, doctor-led preventive health assessment for people who want to understand their health now, identify important risks early and stay healthy, strong and capable for longer.
Rather than testing everything or trying to optimise every number, we focus on the things most likely to make a meaningful difference to your future health.
Your assessment combines your medical history and goals with objective measures of body composition, bone health and physical capability. Further investigations are then selected according to what we actually need to know.
The result is a clear, personalised plan for what to act on, what to monitor and what is already going well.
Who is this for?
Future Health is designed for adults who are generally focused on staying well and want a more comprehensive understanding of their health than a standard health check can provide.
It may be particularly useful if you want to:
- understand your current health and future health risks
- establish objective baseline measurements while you're well
- understand your body composition, muscle and bone health
- assess your strength, power, balance and physical capability
- identify areas where early action may be worthwhile
- make your exercise, nutrition and lifestyle efforts more targeted
- understand which additional investigations are actually worth doing
- develop a clear plan for staying healthy and capable as you age
You don't need to arrive with a particular diagnosis or health problem.

How it works
1. Understand where you are today
Before your appointment, you'll complete a comprehensive online health questionnaire.
This gives me an understanding of your medical and family history, current health, medications, lifestyle and — importantly — what you want your health and physical capability to look like in the years ahead.
You'll then complete two objective assessments.
DEXA body composition and bone density
DEXA provides detailed information beyond body weight or BMI, including:
muscle and lean mass
body fat and its distribution
visceral fat
regional body composition
bone mineral density
This helps us understand important aspects of your metabolic, muscle and bone health.
Preventive Health Physical Assessment
At PMQ Health, you'll complete an objective assessment of your physical capability using VALD performance technology and HumanTrak movement assessment.
Depending on your assessment, this includes measures of:
strength
power
balance
mobility
functional movement
physical capability
The aim isn't to achieve perfect scores. It's to understand what is already strong, identify meaningful areas for improvement and establish useful baseline measures for the future.
2. Your Medical Assessment
40-minute Telehealth consultation with Dr Kate
Once your initial assessments are complete, we'll bring the information together.
We'll discuss your current health, goals, DEXA and physical assessment and identify the areas most relevant to your future health.
We'll consider:
What is already going well?
What deserves our attention?
What can realistically be changed?
What additional information would actually help us make better decisions?
You'll then receive a personalised investigation plan.
Includes:
✓ Comprehensive pre-appointment health questionnaire
✓ DEXA body composition assessment
✓ DEXA bone density assessment
✓ Preventive physical assessment at PMQ Health
✓ 40-minute telehealth medical consultation with Dr Kate
✓ Personalised pathology and investigation plan where appropriate
3. Investigate what matters
There is no standard panel of advanced tests that everyone needs.
Following your assessment, I may recommend investigations based on your individual health, risk factors and goals.
These may include:
blood tests
VO₂ max / cardiorespiratory fitness testing
additional medical investigations where clinically appropriate
Some people will benefit from more investigation than others.
More testing isn't necessarily better.
Every additional investigation should answer a useful question or have the potential to influence what we do next.
Where private pathology, VO₂ max testing or other investigations involve an additional cost, you can decide whether you wish to proceed. These services are booked and paid for separately.
4. Make sense of your results
If you choose to have further investigations, you will come for an extended session to discuss your results.
Future Health Results & Plan — $240
Once your investigations are complete, we'll meet again for a 40-minute Telehealth consultation.
This isn't simply a test-by-test review.
The value isn't in collecting more data - it's knowing what to do with it.
I'll integrate your medical assessment, body composition, bone health, physical capability and investigation results to answer four questions:
What did we find?
What actually matters?
What can we change?
What are the next three priorities?
Not every abnormal result needs treatment, and not every aspect of your health needs optimising.
We'll distinguish between findings that require action, things worth monitoring, and areas that are already strong.
Your Future Health Roadmap
You'll leave with a personalised plan that brings everything together.
Your Roadmap will identify:
Your priorities
The small number of things most likely to make a meaningful difference to your future health.
What you can change
Practical actions based on your health, goals and preferences. These may involve exercise, nutrition, medical treatment, risk-factor management or other interventions where appropriate.
What to monitor
Which measurements are worth following over time — and when they should be reassessed.
What is already strong
Healthy areas to maintain rather than continually trying to optimise.
What doesn't need action
Incidental or low-priority findings that don't need to become another thing for you to worry about.
What happens afterwards?
Your Future Health Assessment is designed to give you a clear plan. For some people, the next step is simply to put their plan into action.
Others may benefit from medical treatment, additional support or periodic review depending on what their assessment identifies.
If you do want to monitor your progress over time, short and long Telehealth follow-up appointments are available. Ongoing patients also have access to regular InBody body-composition monitoring at PMQ Health at no additional charge where useful for tracking progress.
