    Most NHS doctors do a wellman clinic and you can get everything checked out there.

    Called up my GP, booked for a 'Well Man" check. Thanks everyone for your input!

    Hi Will

    Local chemists do blood pressure, bmi, weight and height checks for free.

    Are they any weight management services in your area?
    I'm in Redcar and we have ones in Brotton, Middlesbrough and Stockton where they provide health checks and such I'm sure.

    Hope that helps :-)

    TBH I'm fine for BMI/height/weight etc. I think I'm more interested on stuff on the inside I can't see. So basically, I need a blood test. I hare needles.

    I think the doctors will - my phlebotomist is always on at me to schedule in a full bloods test - I just haven't done it as I have to fast before hand so I will need to schedule it for a rest day (not to mention psych myself up as I too HATE needles!)

    Thanks for the prompt, I'd kept meaning to check my cholesterol.

    I found a pharmacy round the corner that was doing a cholesterol, blood pressure and diabetes (glucose) check for £10, so I treated myself to that :smile:
