Health begins with awareness, and to know what is typical for you. Being familiar with how you usually feel ,makes it easier to detect when there's a change.

Public Health Education (ProfBob Patient Academy)

Public Health Education is important as it ensures everyone is aware of health hazards through educational programs, campaigns and through influencing government policies.

At the ProfBob Patient Academy we are empowering patients & their families, to take control of their Body & Soul by providing important information on wellness, beauty, health & longevity.

This helps patient, families & the community to change their impression of a traditional hospital for disease diagnosis and cure, to an institution where they can learn about Health and staying healthy, and if sick how to get health the best and fastest way again.

Preventionis better than cure

Prevention – also called prophylaxis – means any action taken to keep people healthy and well, and prevent or avoid risk of poor health, illness, injury, and early aging and death. There are several levels of prevention.

Primary Level - Avoid a disease from happening is by far the best

A large proportion of the chronic diseases of concern are preventable by simple means (→ Lifestyle medicine), for skin aging will be significantly reduced when a patients stop smoking.
Secondary Level - Early detection by screening

If you cannot avoid the disease, detect it at an early stage. This is why for example skin cancer screening is so important.
Tertiary Level - Best possible recovery by holistic multidisciplinary care

If you have to treat the disease, use a holistic, personalised care & support plan, to offer the best possible result.
