Age is not just a number when it comes to health choices. Your age is one of the main factors that determines the types of health screenings that you need and when to go for them.

Consultant urologist Dr George Lee is joined by consultant geriatrician Prof Dr Shahrul Bahyah Kamaruzzaman and consultant gynaecological oncologist Prof Dr Woo Yin Ling to discuss.
