Is it worth it?
This page does not answer that. Here is what the NHS does for free, and what those who set screening policy say.
- NHS Health Check
- “a free check-up of the health of your heart and blood vessels”
- Who can have it
- People “aged 40 to 74 who do not have” certain conditions, such as heart disease or diabetes, or who already take medicines like statins
- How often
- Every 5 years, by invitation from your GP or local council
- What it checks
- Height, weight, waist, blood pressure, cholesterol and possibly blood sugar, in about 20 to 30 minutes

UK National Screening Committee
“Screening is not for people who have symptoms. People who have symptoms should always consult their GP.”
GOV.UK, published 21st November 2023
NHS
“Private companies offer a range of screening tests that you have to pay for.”

Could it find something that isn’t there?
The Royal College of Radiologists, on MRI scans, which this clinic offers
“If you have no symptoms, we don’t recommend trying to get an MRI scan without being referred by a doctor, as there is a chance of overdiagnosis and treatment of irregularities that turn out to be nothing to worry about. This can cause unnecessary anxiety and can even lead to unnecessary treatment.”
