Health check stories
People benefit in many ways from their Keep Well health check including:
- peace of mind that they're in good health, or reassurance about something that's worrying them
- realistic advice about healthy eating or exercise
- contact with people who can help them with issues like stopping smoking – or with advice about benefits, money or returning to work.
Even if a health problem is found, your practice can start treating or controlling it – rather than leave it to get worse, undetected and untreated.
Because of all that, most people find the Keep Well health check a positive experience and a good opportunity to improve their health and lifestyle.
"I did try it on my own but... you’ve got to have a wee bit of motivation and other people there. I just feel, I just feel a lot better in myself, do you know what I mean?" Bronka from Dundee
