So many people are afraid of visiting the doctor that they avoid it if at all possible. I have heard of people who developed serious health problems because they put off going to see the doctor. Are you one of those people? When was your last visit?

I have always hated doctors. I am not really afraid, I just do not like them. This disliking has also been fused by three times when I had to go to the doctor, and both time they were really rude and not at all nice and helpful. So with those experiences also it makes me even more reluctant.
Luckily I am a person that is very rarely sick etc so, so far I haven't really needed to get medicines or seeing a doctor very often. Those three times I mentioned above is the only times I have seen a doctor the last 10 years. Apart from that I haven't had any situations where I needed to see a doctor!

Ten years is a very long time but thankfully you have no had any health issues during that time.

I get a complete physical once a year and a mini physical (lab work)once a year. So i see my internist every 6mo. When i was younger i DIDNOT go to the dr. unless i was seriously ill. I still don't like it but at my age i figure that if something goes wrong, the sooner i know the better.
