Hi we had blood sample taken, urine sample tested, chest x-ray, blood pressure, heart and lung sounds, a bit of pushing and prodding of the abdomen. Hubby had to cough:o Lots of questions on current/past medical conditions. We didn't find it to bad, I had a lady doctor which help me be at ease and hubby had a male doctor.
