My husband and I recently relocated from New York to London with our 18 month old daughter. In the US, babies/toddlers have “well-child visit” checkups with their pediatricians at certain ages (9 months, 12, 15, 18, etc.). We have been told by our local NHS that this is not done here, and they only perform a 6 week check-up. We do have private insurance (Bupa) with his employer, however, we have been told that private insurance is only used on a recommendation for a specific issue (not just a general physical/well-child checkup). Is there any way we can have a checkup like this done for our daughter or does that simply not exist in England? Thank you so much for any insight. It is greatly appreciated!
