The frequency of routine check-ups depends on several factors, including the patient's age, medical history, and risk factors:
Children: Pediatric check-ups are usually more frequent, especially in the first few years of life, to monitor growth and development. Adults: Generally, adults should have a routine check-up annually or as advised by their healthcare provider. Seniors: Older adults may require more frequent check-ups due to the increased risk of health issues associated with aging.
