My friend needs help with post-eating disorder problems?


So I have a very close female friend who has had eating disorders. I have managed to get her back on track as we worked together but she wants to go to see a doctor for a health checkup, but she doesn't want to go with her mum, she wants to go alone.

What is the legal age in the UK so that she can do this? She has recently turned 14?

Thanks guys :D

I'm pretty sure you can go to the doctor on your own at any age over here =\ not 100% certain but pretty sure.

she can go to he doctor at any age... thats great that she wants to see a doctor, really responsible..

Good for your friend, and best of luck!

I'm not sure what the law says over there, but at worst she can call the doctor and find out that way.
