At Turi
We are redefining preventive health for the modern individual
Make functional care a new standard for all, empowering everyone to be in optimal form to prevent diseases and maximise health span.
Many begin to feel some symptoms, subtle nuances of aging and hints of body deterioration. It's a pivotal period when proactive care can prevent minor issues from becoming acute concerns. Yet, the current western system often sidelines these concerns until it’s too late.
To fill in this gap, we have created a new digital experience blending a comprehensive health check, a dedicated team of health care specialists, highly personalised health plans and accountability coaching to drive one’s health from average to optimal.
Our commitment is clear, to be the personal functional doctor you truly deserve: at the forefront of medicine, highly personalised care, available through all stages of life - and always in your pocket.
