The NHS Health Check is carried out by a healthcare professional. The check takes about 20 to 30 minutes. You’ll usually be told your results during the appointment. Also a summary of the results of your NHS Health Check will be recorded in your confidential medical records, which can be accessed by your GP and other healthcare professionals who need to see it if you consult them
