😴 Running on empty? Your sleep could be affecting more than just your energy levels…

Research shows that a third of people in the UK aren’t sleeping enough, with the average person getting around 5.91 hours per night.

Sleep and mental health are closely intertwined; both can significantly impact each other. Poor sleep can worsen mental health issues, while mental health struggles can disrupt sleep patterns.

There are many other factors that can influence sleep including:

✅ Age
✅ Medical problems
✅ Environment

Here our founder and lead GP, Dr Adam Simon, explains all and top tips to help improve your 💤 👉🏽 https://privategpextra.com/the-importance-of-sleep-top-tips-and-when-to-seek-help/

Around 1️⃣ in 3️⃣ UK adults have high blood pressure, with 5️⃣0️⃣% of heart attacks and strokes linked to high blood pressure.

The medical term for high blood pressure is ‘hypertension’, and it means that your blood pressure is always too high.

If left untreated, hypertension can also lead to complications such as:

▫️ Kidney failure
▫️ Heart failure
▫️ Problems with your sight
▫️ Vascular dementia

High blood pressure does not usually cause any symptoms. Many people have it without realising it.

Rarely, high blood pressure can cause signs such as:

✔️ Headaches
✔️ Blurred vision
✔️Chest pain

The only way to find out if you have high blood pressure is to get your blood pressure checked.

If you’re concerned about hypertension, book an appointment with one of our highly experienced GPs

Your skin is your body’s largest organ and changes to it should never be ignored.

Skin cancer is one of the most common cancers in the UK, with around 1️⃣ in 5️⃣ people expected to develop some form of skin cancer in their lifetime.

Each year, there are over 16,000 new melanoma cases, and incidence rates continue to rise.

The good news? When detected early, skin cancer is often highly treatable.

👩🏻‍⚕️ At Private GP Extra, we’re supporting SKCIN and Macmillan Cancer Support to rencourage regular skin awareness and early assessment of any concerns. Monitoring your skin and moles is a simple but important step in protecting your health.

In a consultation, we can help you:

🔍 Assess new or changing moles
📏 Check for asymmetry, irregular borders, colour changes or size increase
📸 Monitor lesions over time
🧾 Provide advice or refer for further investigation if needed

We recommend keeping an eye out for the ABCDE signs:

A – Asymmetry
B – Border irregularity
C – Colour variation
D – Diameter (larger than 6mm)
E – Evolving or changing over time

Your skin tells a story — noticing changes early can make all the difference.

If you have any concerns about your skin or moles, don’t delay seeking advice.

💙 💙

In the UK, bowel cancer is the 4th most common cancer, with around 44,000 people diagnosed each year, and 1 in 15 men and 1 in 18 women being diagnosed during their lifetime.

Despite this, many people are still unaware of the symptoms and early detection can save lives.

This Bowel Cancer Awareness Month, we’re supporting awareness efforts to help more people recognise the signs and feel confident seeking medical advice when something doesn’t feel right.

Symptoms can include:

🔹 Persistent changes in bowel habits
🔹 Blood in your stool
🔹 Abdominal pain
🔹 Unexplained weight loss
🔹 Ongoing fatigue

While these don’t always mean
cancer, it’s important to get checked. ✅

A little-known fact: bowel cancer doesn’t just affect older adults - cases in younger people are rising, making awareness more important than ever.

🩺 At Private GP Extra, we offer prompt access to experienced doctors across the North West, providing personalised
assessments, early investigation, and peace of mind when it comes to your health.
