Walker Health Service
Modern Society is witnessing an epidemic of obesity, other serious health problems,
increasing fatigue and most people are stressed beyond belief. This is despite all
manner of technology that should be making our lives easier and better.
For any Preventative Health Program to be of true value for the individual and the
company it must be"life-changing and sustainable". The business world spends millions
of dollars each year training new executives to replace those culled by heart disease,
cancer and many other disorders leading to premature death or forced early retirement
not to forget the immeasurable emotional cost to the families affected. It is therefore
of value and certainly cost-effective for big business to have a proactive attitude
and involvement in viable Preventative Health Programs.
Many businesses are offering their top executives and clients, value added extras
such as conferences, golf days and even go-karting. Although enjoyable, do they
really add value to the lives of those involved?
Why not offer your executives something of real value?
Dr Ross Walker is
one of the World's premier health speakers
and a life-changing eminent practising cardiologist. He has developed a comprehensive
preventative health program which can be integrated into your business. Many large
companies spend huge amounts of money each year on executive health screening programs.
They are usually created and supervised by general practitioners utilising very
basic blood tests and outmoded stress testing techniques.
Dr Walker’s service can be streamlined to the needs of your business. The basic
structure is as follows:
Pre-conference registration
Email (confidential) health questionnaire
Advanced Preventative blood screening (organised in the fasting state at each individual’s
office).
Corporate Health Assessments. On site at your premises or another
appropriate location
- Optional health lectures by Dr Walker
- Individual assessment* for each executive, client involved
- Arterial Screening: totally non-invasive assessment of cardiovascular health which
can detect early blood vessel disease (as early as late teens to early twenties)
and thus determine further investigations if necessary and long-term health advice
- Full interpretation of health risk profile
- Individualised long-term health plan
- Long-term follow-up program.
* Optional assessment may include an insurance medical.
Dr Ross Walker is an internationally acclaimed cardiologist with over twenty years
experience in cardiology. Although still practising in mainstream cardiology, he
devotes a majority of his clinic time involved in prevention. Dr Walker discusses
all aspects of lifestyle and nutritional advice combined with the best therapies
orthodox medicine has to offer. He is very committed to the early detection and
treatment of heart disease.
Dr Walker has introduced major new technologies to the Australian medical market
place including Coronary Gated High-speed CT scanning technology and stress echocardiography.
He provides a service in all aspects of echocardiography, focusing on stress echocardiography
which is a well accepted, accurate method for assessing heart disease, not involving
irradiation or injections. There are presently no other stress echo services on
the upper North Shore.
Dr Walker commenced stress echocardiography in 1992 and has since performed over
15,000 studies, over 30,000 trans thoracic echoes and 2,000 trans oesophageal echoes.
Stress echocardiography provides much more information to the practitioner than
stress testing alone.
His other area of expertise is in the field of preventative cardiology and he has
also commenced a related service in arterial screening, which is an indirect measure
of endothelial function and arterial stiffness, and does not involve irradiation
or injections. Dr Walker has published sixbooks on preventative cardiology and lectures
both nationally and internationally on this subject.
His practice is now located at:
Suite 3, Level 2 55 Grandview St, Pymble, Sydney, NSW, Australia 2073
