When you go to the Dr. for the yearly physical, do you think you are receiving value? Most of us see the Dr. once a year, if we are lucky, so I would like to feel as if I am getting a thorough checkup. The last few years I have felt it to be slightly haphazard. This has been the case with several Drs, not just the one I have now. Seeing it is rather difficult to obtain a "family doctor" it's not like a person can just change physicians. I have had one really good Dr that gave a very thorough checkup but he has retired. I am not referring to the number of tests ordered if any but the actual physical. I’m just wondering if others feel the same.
