Health check Privately

[Deleted member 294929]

Has anyone paid for a full body health check privately?

I'd like to look into this!

I think a finger up the bum is included but I want more than that.

Your GP will do that as a freebee. What else do you want?
A full bells and braces health check including bloods, MRI/CT scans?
If you have a particular ailment the GP is the start.

Such as? A reach around or a happy ending?

Such as asking of the doctor, "Where should I put my trousers?"

And him replying, "Over there, next to mine"

I've had a private finger up the bum and it was OK. Not what it's made out to be.

No symptoms = nothing to worry about.

Where do we get this fear of a killer disease without symptoms???

Nothing like peace of mind. Two fellas I know about my age died this last week or so.

Over 1500 people die every day in uk, some suddenly, more so in recent times.
If the nhs had to scan everybody for everything we would need to double our taxes.
The number of people who are sick and have no symptoms is extremely small.
Instead, large is the number of people who ignore symptoms or do not take up the offer of routine screening.
One of the biggest killer in the world is cardiovascular disease.
Checking blood pressure regularly and blood tests every couple of years would prevent earlier deaths and cost very little.
So, imo yes to screening, no to expensive useless (or even detrimental) clinical examination (i.e. MRI, CT scan).

All OK until he puts both his hands on your shoulders as he's doing it.

I hate when that happens.
