Definitely when you are sick. But most people still not to go the doctor since its gonna be pricey, they dont know to what doctor or they think that buying self-prescription medication over the counter from what they read in the internet. I prefer to go to the doctor when my symptoms is persisted despite taking self-prescription medication. How about you?

everyone can bear different amount of stimuli, some start complaining after minor discomfort while many dont bother to tell anybody untill they are really sick but yeah you are right we should seek Doctor' advice when our symptoms are persistent

Going to the Doctors is totally free for us, prescriptions are also free so there is no cost at all with health care. . . but I have not been to the Dr's for over 15 years

I think when we get some illness To see a doctor is so important ,however, in my view, keeping a good attitude is the most important thing. If I caught a cold or something I'd rather buy some self-prescription medication than go to see a doctor.

I would go to a Doctor, when I feel that self medication is of no use. Sometimes, the illness is such that only Doctor could prescribe the best suitable medicine for us, therefore, we should not hesitate to go to a Doctor.

I will go to see a doctor when I really feel so ill. Most of the time I just let it be. If I can't get better after few days, then I will go to the pharmacy to buy some medicines for myself. I don't want to go to see a doctor as usually they will give me more extra medicines which seem not to be necessary. And of course it will cost much more. Besides, it is so crowded in the hospital and I really feel worse to go there.

well it is advisable and i think that we should first have precatuionary measures and when symptoms are serious and needs attention then we should go to doctor straight way.

I don't see the doctor so often, and normally I just wait till my body cure itself. And it always (or mostly) happens that way. I see the doctor only in emergency cases.
