You may still want to use amcheck to look for problems. The version on
Github works with 9.5, and there are Redhat and Debian pgdg packages.
See:
https://github.com/petergeoghegan/amcheck
The "heapallindexed" option will be of particular interest to you -
that option verifies that the table has matching rows for a target
index (in addition to testing the structure of a target B-Tree index
itself). This is probably the best general test for corruption that is
available. There is a fair chance that this will reveal new
information.
