Yes, I do now.  When I was younger I did not go for everything but I do go for regularly check ups.

I go once a year to my gynecologist because the big "C" runs in my family.

I see my general practitioner once a year because my insurance gives me gift cards and such for seeing him and doing testing such as mammograms, etc.  :female: :thumbsup:

They also pay for a gym membership, but I don't go too often. I like walking outside better than using machines. And I do some weight lifting at home. Just eight pound weights that I use for ten minutes or so.

My health is a huge priority to me.

I do not go to the Dr because it is too expensive.  Even with insurance, I have a $3000 per person deductible so, don't go unless I have to.

I go to my Doctor on a regular basis.  It's better to go if nothing else for preventive measures.   :rose: :rose: :rose: :rose:

My husband and I go regularly. And sometimes in-between.  The older you get the more important it is.  I do like the portals that are available on our doctors practice.  It is a fast and easy way to get a less important  answered.

I go for yearly check-ups, have to get prescription refills.  I haven't need to go in between in several years (knock wood).

Only for mamo's and other mandatory check ups. Never go to the doctor when I am sick. I can heal myself without prescription crap!

I have really bad allergies that collect within my body and produce phlegm which makes me sick to my stomach and throw up, so I take a prescription allergy med so I have no choice but to routinely go to the doctor but it is understandable not wanting to go since it does seem they just want to either give you more pills or send you to a specialist to simply drain your money.
