It is recommended by various health organizations such as Mayo Clinic, Medcan, that individuals get an annual health exam/review. This will allow a physician to review any known medical problem and review any symptoms, behaviours, or conditions that may be suggestive of a developing problem or pose an increased risk to developing such a problem.
A physician will typically do a comprehensive medical history and physical exam as well as other diagnostic tests (blood, x-rays, etc.) to help achieve the above goals.
