G P surgeries hiding appointments

From the NHS website.
You'll be invited for a free NHS Health Check every 5 years if you're between 40 and 74 years of age and do not already have a pre-existing condition.
If you're registered with a GP surgery that offers the NHS Health Check, you should automatically get an invitation.

Technically it is every five years but my surgery does one every year , whatever mine do i have good care , might be very lucky , in fact i know i am

Ring your consultants medical secretary and ask where you are on the list

Would that be my doctor who referred me?
It is the msk consultant that I need to damn well see, slow twats.

No the one you are waiting to see , if you know the name you can ring the hosp and ask to speak to his secretary , if you dont know the consultants name you can try getting it from your gp surgery , not many people know you can do that . I had to ring when my shoulder was broken and i twisted it and thought i had done more damage and she booked me in for an extra fracture clinic appt and xray . They are very helpful

Cheers, I'll look into that, it may take 3 months to get my surgery to answer the phone though lol

Don't you have pre-existing health conditions hence the annual MOT?

Covid failed so they need to come up with something else

When you say everyone, what about those not offered it ?
I've never been offered it, Mrs Mist hasn't (different surgery) and neither have my mates.
I'd go further and say none of us know about it.

It may be over a certain age. Or if you have ongoing health problems. I have had them for the past 5 years.
