With your GP, a thorough work-up usually requires symptoms or a referral. If you simply want to know how you are actually doing inside, you can go straight to a private health check. Here is what to know before you book.

- A private health check requires neither symptoms nor a referral.
- A thorough check measures 70+ biomarkers and turns them into a concrete plan.
- Expect prices from around DKK 11,000 — Aevia from DKK 10,995 incl. VAT.
- It complements your GP — it does not replace them.
Do you need a referral?
No. The public system is built to treat illness, not to map the health of healthy people. Private health checks exist precisely for those who want to act before symptoms appear — you book yourself, and you own your results.
What should a thorough health check include?
At minimum a full blood panel (lipids incl. ApoB and Lp(a), blood sugar and insulin, hormones, vitamins, inflammation, liver and kidneys), a biological age calculation, and — most importantly — a medical interpretation that turns the numbers into prioritised actions. Without the interpretation, a health check is just a column of numbers.
What does it cost?
Basic packages from private providers in Denmark typically start around DKK 2,000-5,000 but often cover few markers. A deep programme with 70+ markers, biological age and a 1:1 physician review starts around DKK 11,000. Aevia Core costs DKK 10,995 incl. VAT, and you can add a cardio fitness test, MRI and genetics as needed.
How it works
- Book a time online — choose package and date.
- Receive a preparation guide (typically 8-12 hours fasting before the blood draw, water is fine).
- Attend the sampling — under two hours of your time.
- An AI compiles your results, and a physician reviews and approves the report.
- You receive the report within 10 working days and go through it 1:1.
Who should consider it?
Any adult who wants to know their starting point — especially if illness runs in your family, your energy is slipping, or you simply have not had a proper set of numbers taken in years. You need no reason beyond curiosity about your own health.
Frequently asked questions
Does my GP get the results?
Only if you choose to share them. You own your data and can share the report with your GP — which we actually recommend if anything needs follow-up.
Is it a waste of money if I am healthy?
It is precisely when you are healthy that the numbers are most valuable: you get a baseline to measure future change against — and early signals can be reversed while it is still easy.
