What is an NHS Health Check?
It’s a free check-up of your overall health and can help tell you if you’re at a higher risk of getting certain health problems, such as:
Heart Disease
Diabetes
Kidney Disease
Stroke
How do I get my Results?
You’ll be given your results during your appointment.
Our friendly practitioners will provide you with a cardiovascular risk score, which is an estimate of how likely you are to get heart disease or have a stroke in the next 10 years.
The higher the risk score, the more likely are to develop one of these illnesses, but do not worry – you will also be given supportive and effective lifestyle advice about how to:
- Improve your diet
- Increase the amount of exercise you do
- Lose weight
- Stop smoking
