Four reasons health checks for men are important – even if you feel great

Posted June 14, 2021

You're a guy in the prime of your life. You feel fine. Why bother getting a health check? As men in our 20s, 30s and 40s, our health care needs aren’t usually top of mind. Being busy with our careers, families and other pursuits leaves little time to think about health. It’s important to realize, however, that many of the health issues that impact “older men” can be prevented by taking action now. An annual physical is a perfect way to take action.
