Before my recent medical issues, for 63 years Hospital (casualty) was a place I only ever visited to fix broken bones. Not that I have bone issues per say, just a result of reckless carelessness.
There is much to be said however for having regular in depth checkups. Without a surveillance scan for my bowel cancer, the Bladder cancer would have gone undiagnosed, with - it has to be said - me ignoring the now patiently obvious symptoms.
And thats the point, more than enough stories of "Pftt I dont need a hospital" people ignoring symptoms that get bad enough to kill them.
