How often do you see a doctor?

[Cpvr]

Routine checkups and regular visits to the doctor are something we should all prioritize as we get older to ensure we’re staying healthy and taking care of ourselves.



I personally see my doctor every couple of months for a routine checkup. What about you? How often do you visit your doctor?

 

[ArmyWife09]

Once a month as I have different kinds of health issues.

 

[Rey619]

When i am really sick

 

[PGen98]

I have different doctors I visit, so I'm always back and forth to different doctor's offices, usually at least one a week.

That sucks. I used to be like that but I then found a doctor that will do most of the stuff.

 

[MamaFrankie]

Frequently as I have multiple health issues.

 

[Rey619]

Not often

Only when I'm dying.

The last time was about 12 years ago when I thought I was having a heart attack. Turned out I wasn't and that I had a healthy heart!

I do get an annual wellness check from my company in order to pay less for my United Healthcare.

Although we all should for a health checkup every 3-6 months or at least a year if we don't like to go every 6 months but I try to avoid any such visits.

 

[King Belieal]

This year is winding down and I have not yet seen a doctor. I know that I am supposed to do routine body checks even when I don't feel sick. Would try to budget and do that from next year.

Every three months being a diabetic as I have to get new meds.

I can imagine but are they repeating the same meds or prescribing new ones? How Often do you get your diabetes monitored?

 

[Jason]

Very rarely because they have a tendency in the US to prescribe unneeded medicine due to Big Pharma.

But the situation may be different with others. For instance, diabetes is a real condition that needs medicine.

 

[Firefly]

to be honest, i only go when i am sick or take my daughter there when she is sick too. other than that, i really don't do monthly checkups.

 

[bestwriter]

I have managed taking care of my health by contactin doctors on phone. It was quite a while ago that I met a doctor across a table.

 

[Ginger]

I try to avoid it as much as I can lol, I don't like to get myself tested, or inspected. I hope to not see a doctor for years

 

[Nomad]

Last time I went to a doctor was 7 years ago when my blood pressure dropped to critical level. I did not go to doctor when I had corona, I stayed home, quarantined and taking supplements.

 

[Blueflame]

Only when I'm sick, and that would be about 4 years ago.
