Complimentary health checks and assessment in Yakutsk's city park
HealthCheck Event Offers Comprehensive Health Screenings in Yakutsk
Residents and visitors of Yakutsk have been offered a unique opportunity to undergo free health screenings, including ECG, spirometry, body composition assessment, and express blood tests for sugar, cholesterol, diabetes, and stroke risks. The "HealthCheck" event, which took place on Ordzhonikidze Square on July 31 and August 1, continues daily from 14:00 to 19:00 in the city park near the "Forest Library".
Over two days, more than 200 participants took advantage of this service, praising its convenience as no prior appointments were required for tests and consultations. The event is especially beneficial for remote areas where access to specialists is limited, as stated by Julia Spiridonova, the head doctor of the Republican Health Center.
On August 5, testing for infections, including HIV and syphilis, is planned. A dermatovenereologist will be available for consultations on Friday, August 8.
According to Julia Spiridonova, "HealthCheck" is not just diagnostics, but an opportunity to adjust one's lifestyle in time. Many residents and visitors of Yakutsk were found to have health risks, primarily related to high blood sugar and dietary issues.
On Monday, participants can undergo all the previously mentioned health checks. On August 6, testing for oncological markers is available from 9:00 to 12:00.
Ivan Osipov, a resident of Yakutsk, expressed appreciation for the service, stating it was very convenient for him and his family. Darya Malysheva, a resident from the Lower Kolyma District, also appreciated the service, finding it efficient and well-organized.
If you are in need of such event information, it might be best to check local health department announcements, official city websites, or health clinics in Yakutsk directly for the most current updates. As of early August 2025, no search results indicating upcoming HealthCheck events offering free health screenings, infection testing, and oncological marker tests were found in Yakutsk.
Engaging in 'science and health-and-wellness', residents and visitors of Yakutsk can access various medical-condition screenings, such as checks for diabetes, stroke risks, and oncological markers, at the "HealthCheck" event. This community project aims not only to diagnose but also to promote 'health-and-wellness' by encouraging lifestyle adjustments, according to Julia Spiridonova, the head doctor of the Republican Health Center.
