Free brain and spine health assessment
A short set of questions about what you have been experiencing, and a view on whether it is worth showing to a neuro or spine specialist. It takes a few minutes, it is free, and you do not have to book anything afterwards.
Assessments you can take
What the assessment is
It is a structured set of questions about your symptoms — the kind a doctor would ask at the start of a consultation. You answer them at your own pace, and at the end you get a summary you can read, save or take to an appointment.
It is a way of organising what you are experiencing into something worth showing a specialist. It is not a diagnosis, and it does not replace being examined by a doctor.
When people find it useful
- Symptoms have been going on for a while and you are not sure whether they warrant seeing someone.
- You find it hard to describe what has been happening when you are in front of a doctor.
- You want something written down to take to an appointment.
- You are trying to work out which kind of specialist to see.
What happens afterwards
Nothing automatically. You get your summary, and it is yours. If you want to take it further you can book a consultation with a verified neurologist, neurosurgeon or spine specialist, or read more in the Health Hub. Nobody calls you because you completed an assessment.
Common questions
Does it cost anything?
No. The assessment is free and there is nothing to pay at any point in it.
Do I need an account?
Yes — you sign in with your phone number so your answers and your summary are saved to you and nobody else can read them.
Is this a diagnosis?
No. It organises your symptoms and suggests whether they are worth a specialist’s attention. Only a doctor who examines you can diagnose you.
How long does it take?
A few minutes. You can stop and come back to it.
A health assessment is a set of questions, not a clinical examination, and its summary is not a diagnosis. If you have sudden weakness, loss of consciousness, a severe head injury, a rapidly worsening headache or loss of bladder or bowel control, go to an emergency department now rather than completing an assessment.
