Private Health Screening for Men and Women Over 40 in Wigan and Beyond

As we get older, it becomes more important to keep a closer eye on our health. If you’re over 40 and want to stay one step ahead, a private health check-up could be just what you need.
At Ready Health Clinic in Standish, we support people from Wigan, Chorley, Bolton, and Horwich with full-body health screening tailored to their age and concerns.
Why Health Screenings Matter After 40
Once we hit 40, our risk for things like high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, and certain cancers increases. A simple screening gives you peace of mind and a clearer picture of where your health stands.
What’s Included in a Private Health MOT?
Our over-40 health checks are personalised but often include:
- Blood pressure and heart rate
- BMI and waist measurement
- Full blood tests (cholesterol, liver, kidney, thyroid, blood sugar)
- Urine analysis
- Lifestyle review (nutrition, sleep, exercise, alcohol)
- Optional: ECG, prostate/testosterone checks (for men), cervical/breast health (for women)
Is It Worth Going Private?
Yes—if you want fast access, flexibility, and a more personal approach. You won’t need to wait for NHS eligibility or appointments. Instead, you’ll get your results quickly and walk away with a clearer understanding of your body and what it needs.
Who Carries Out the Check?
Our experienced team of GPs, nurses, and pharmacists will guide you through the process. We also offer on-site blood draws, health advice, and referrals where needed.
Who Should Get One?
If you:
- Haven’t had a check-up in years
- Have a family history of heart disease or diabetes
- Want to feel reassured or proactive
- Have new symptoms or just “don’t feel right”
…it’s a great time to book.
Benefits of Going Private
- No GP referral needed
- Flexible appointment times
- Results explained clearly by our expert team
- Fast turnaround and next steps if needed
