The Ultimate Midlife Health Checklist
Helping you stay strong, sharp and in control — for the long run
From Dr Matthew Roycroft, NHS Consultant
You’ve looked after everyone else.
Isn’t it time to focus on you?
In your late 50s, 60s and beyond, health suddenly feels more real:
Maybe you’ve noticed you don’t bounce back like you used to.
Maybe you’ve been told your cholesterol or blood pressure is “a bit high.”
Or maybe family are gently nudging you to get things checked.
But with rushed GP appointments and endless (often conflicting) online advice, it’s hard to know what really matters — or where to start.
That’s exactly why I created The Ultimate Midlife Health Checklist: a free, doctor-designed guide that helps you cut through the noise, see where you stand, and take practical next steps.
Inside, you’ll discover how to:
✅ Spot hidden risks early — so you can take action before small problems become big ones.
✅Understand your numbers with clarity — no more guessing what your blood pressure or cholesterol actually mean for your health.
✅See where you’re on track (and where you’re not) — helping you focus your time and energy on what really matters.
✅Pinpoint gaps you might have missed — from screenings to everyday habits that keep you strong and sharp.
✅Connect your health to what matters most — whether that’s more years of travel, energy for family adventures, or staying independent for longer.
Why this matters
Your health isn’t just about avoiding illness. It’s about:
✨ Having the energy to enjoy retirement, not just get through it
💪 Staying independent and active, rather than relying on others
🎉 Being there for the milestones that matter most — from family holidays to graduations
This checklist helps you take the first step with clarity and confidence.
Designed by a doctor who gets it
I’m Dr Matthew Roycroft, an NHS Consultant. I see every day how confusing health advice can be at this stage of life — and how easy it is for important things to slip through the cracks.
Drawing on two decades of clinical experience I bridge the gap between medical evidence and everyday life—guiding people through the critical years before and after retirement to maximise health, strength and longevity.
I built this checklist to give you a clear, practical way to understand your health and feel in control of your future.
