Wellness visit

I had a 'wellness visit' with my doctor today. It took about half and hour.

Most of the time was spent with me answering questions about my health, my well-being, my facilities, my house, stuff like that.

Took my blood pressure, my oxygen level, my temperature--all very good. Listened to my lungs and heart. My weight was 172. Did look to see if my ankles were swollen (they weren't) but that was all the doctor stuff that was done.

Given an appointment for October and a blood draw order, I went to the wine store and then home.

Wasn't what I expected for sure.

A 'wellness visit' is not a complete physical exam.

I'm not sure what it is, except a way to make money.

Is that too harsh?
