MedlabOfis is a private consultancy and public relations office that provides services in counseling, information, planning, and project development in the field of healthy living.

​

Health counseling is a specialized service provided to protect, improve, and prevent the deterioration of individuals’ health. Fundamentally, it is based on evaluating a person’s current health status, identifying risk factors, creating a roadmap for healthy living, and ensuring follow-up. The process is carried out by medical doctors and, when necessary, supported by experts from other relevant fields.

​

The purpose of this practice is to protect individuals from diseases, detect existing health problems at an early stage, improve quality of life, enable informed decision-making about health, and prevent misguidance. Health counseling is not “disease-oriented” but primarily focused on maintaining health and quality of life.

​

Most health-related consultations fall within the scope of health counseling. Examples include: general health check-ups, acute and chronic infections, chronic diseases requiring follow-up, vitamin and mineral assessments, screenings, vaccinations, weight management, exercise, nutrition, and supplementation.

Health counselors also develop plans and projects for healthy living.

• Combating obesity

• Prevention and management of chronic diseases

• Promoting a healthy environment and safe product choices

• Combating smoking and alcohol use

• Encouraging organ and blood donation

• Elderly care and nursing homes

• Health tourism

are among these plans.
