One day a year for your health
The Annual Health Check
You service your car every year. Your health deserves the same discipline: one lab visit for blood sugar, cholesterol, blood pressure, BMI, and the cancer screening that fits your age and sex, all reviewed by a doctor and kept on one record.
We take nothing on your tests · you pay the lab directly · once a year

What's included
Six things, one visit
Chosen because they catch what quietly causes most avoidable illness in Nigeria: diabetes, heart disease, and late-found cancers. Blood sugar, cholesterol, BP & BMI, and the doctor consult are on every tier from Core Screen; cancer screening starts at Advanced Screen.
Blood sugar (HbA1c)
Your three-month blood sugar average: the earliest reliable warning sign for diabetes, years before symptoms.
Cholesterol (lipid panel)
Total, LDL, HDL, and triglycerides: the numbers behind heart-attack and stroke risk.
Your cancer screening
The one that fits you: cervical screening for women, prostate (PSA) for men 45+, chosen by age and sex, not one-size-fits-all. Included from Advanced Screen up.
Blood pressure & BMI
Measured properly and recorded to your Tarragon record, so next year has something real to compare against.
A doctor walks you through it
A 15-minute video consult with a doctor, checked against your history and explained plainly: what's fine, what to watch, and what, if anything, to do next. Included on every tier.
One record, year after year
Results live in your Health Passport, not a drawer. Trends across years are where early warnings actually show up.
What we measure
Every test, laid out plainly
Exactly what's checked, organised by what it tells you about your body, which tier includes it, and how often it's actually re-checked.
Heart HealthThe numbers behind heart-attack and stroke risk, plus a direct look at your heart's electrical rhythm. Blood pressure is measured and recorded at every visit, on every tier.

How the pieces fit together
Three different things, easy to mix up
These run alongside each other, not instead of one another. Which ones apply to you depends on your age, sex, and whether you have a diagnosed condition, not a choice you have to make.
Your Annual Health Check
One bundled lab visit, once a year: core bloodwork, organ-baseline checks, and infectious-disease screening in a single trip.
Your Screening Journey
The fuller, personal calendar: every screening recommended for your exact age and sex, each on its own real-world cycle, some every year, some every two or three, whether or not it's part of a bundle.
See your screening calendarChronic Condition Monitoring
If you're diagnosed with something like hypertension or diabetes, a separate, much more frequent set of checks, some daily, some every few months, for as long as you're on that care plan.
See hypertension & diabetes monitoringPick your level
Three tiers, one discipline
Each tier includes everything in the one before it, and every one ends with a doctor talking you through your results.
Core Screen
You pay the lab, once
A full cardiometabolic and organ-baseline workup (HbA1c, full lipid panel, full blood count, liver/kidney/thyroid function, urinalysis) plus HIV, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C screening, genotype and blood group (once), and a 15-minute doctor video consult to walk through your results.
Advanced Screen
You pay the lab, once
Everything in Core Screen, plus the cancer screening that fits your age and sex (cervical screening or PSA), an ECG, and a personalised screening calendar.
Comprehensive Screen
You pay the lab, once
Everything in Advanced Screen, plus imaging.
Need just one thing? The WHO-recommended screenings (cervical screening, HIV, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C) can each be requested on their own and confidentially, as can a blood group and genotype check. Either way, take the request to any laboratory you like and pay them directly, at their price; we don't set or quote one.
How your result reaches you
- A result like this is never sent to you over WhatsApp, SMS or email. A doctor tells you, and talks it through with you.
- Those channels never carry clinical detail at all. Our database refuses to queue it, so a reminder can say a result is ready but never what it says.
- Only you and the doctor reviewing it can see the result. It is not shown to an employer or an HMO, even if one pays for your plan.
Coming soon
Full Panel: more biomarkers, on top of any tier
Vitamin D, B12 & folate, iron studies, hs-CRP, a coagulation profile, and an age/sex-appropriate tumour marker screen, added to your next check as a one-time upgrade. We're holding it back until a Clinical Director signs off the exact panel.
Want to look further still? Advanced diagnostic imaging is on the same waitlist.
How it works
Booked in minutes, done in a morning
1
Book in the app
Take your request to any laboratory you like. You pay them directly, at their price, and we take nothing on it.
2
One lab visit
Samples and measurements in a single visit. We don't yet offer home sample collection, and we'd rather say so than imply otherwise.
3
A video consult with your doctor
Every result is read by a doctor, then you get a 15-minute video call to walk through it together. Most people get the best news there is: all clear, see you next year.
4
A plan, if you need one
If something needs attention, a doctor follows up within a day, and within 12 hours if it's critical, then helps you decide what's next, on the same record, with no starting over.
Honest expectations
Most years, your check will simply confirm you're well; that's the point, and it's worth paying for. If something does show up, catching it early usually means simpler, cheaper treatment, and your doctor will say plainly if it needs deeper investigation.
Looking for the year-round version? Your free screening calendar keeps your full screening and vaccination schedule running all year. Comprehensive Screen already includes the doctor video consult reviewing your whole result set, so there's no separate review to buy.
Before you book
What we can actually promise you
A verified doctor reads it
No one can review results here until another clinician has verified their licence, and nobody can verify their own. The database enforces it.
You confirm the price first
You pick the lab, see its exact price, and confirm before anything is charged. You can walk away at any time before that.
Your card stays with Paystack
Payment is handled by Paystack on their own checkout. Your card number stays with them and does not reach Tarragon, so it is not ours to lose.
Book this year's check.
One morning, once a year, and a doctor who tells you where you stand. No subscription, nothing renews: you pay once, and the app itself stays free.
