Taking care of yourself is vitally important to living a long life. One aspect of doing so is having regular checkups from your doctor. Many of us don’t think about or just don’t want to go to the doctor unless we absolutely have to. If you aren’t sick or don’t feel bad, what’s the point of seeing a doctor, right?
