Age you stopped going to the pediatrician

In uk pediatrics only in hospital and out patients clinics own family doctors do most child hood exams treatment and inoculations only end up under pediatrics if have problem own doc cant deal with like long time sickness like asthmatic or ibs

I remember it well because I went to our regular family GP for a physical before starting high school. It made me very happy because the pediatrician didn't have much of an engaging personality, his nurse was like Nurse Ratchet, and the waiting room was always filled with kids much younger than me.

I never had a pediatrician. I grew up in a small town that still only had 1 doctor and he was a jack of all trades. He did pre-natal care for my mom, delivered all of us kids in the 1980s at the nearest hospital 30 miles away, and then did post-natal care for mom and was our general doctor for us kids, parents, and grandparents. He retired right as I was heading off to college. My parents didn't really care for the new doctor who took over the practice so they found a new doctor 20 miles away.

Of course, the family doctor we had growing up had to send patients to the "big city" if it was something like suspecting cancer or heart disease. And when I was in college, I used the campus health clinic.

I had graduated high school when Dr. Williams suggested I "get a grown-up doctor."

I was 16 😃

Don't know that I ever saw a pediatrician. Just the family GP...who smoked like a chimney.

I was 11 the last time at the pediatrician. I saw our family physician after.

I don't remember. It was 10 I think. I was dragged off to a new one once then went to the boarding school. They had their visiting or staff Doctor. He was not very nice. I never liked visiting the Doctor. It still is something I avoid.

I was 18. A few weeks shy of turing 19 for an ear infection. But, I was at the office 7 months prior in August for my yearly physical.

As I noted before, I moved to a doctor who saw adolescents when I was 13 as I recall. I saw this doctor through high school and for my last physical before heading to college. He was very thorough and clearly contributed to my developing fascination in medfet. Upon entering college and beyond, I saw him very sporadically as I relied on student health services at college and then the university for my grad education. The University health service was attached to the medical school so it had no shortage of doctors and nurses in training. There I received very comprehensive exams no matter what the reason for a visit. This truly developed my interest in all things associated with the patient - doctor relationship. I suppose my experience is similar to many others. Medfet takes time to develop and with more frequent experiences and age, it becomes a stronger association to govern our fantasies and participation on Zity as well.

I never had a pediatrician, nor have I gone for annual physicals as a child or young adult. I only visited our family doctor for sick visits. At 17 years old, I did start going to the doctor by myself.

Our family only went to a GP who really did take care of everything from physicals to common ailments. He had an older woman who was the nurse but as I recall also did appointments. She seemed to have a common response to most issues with my sisters and me--give them an enema.

I never went to the pediatrician, my family had a general practitioner

I saw the pediatrician until I was 19.

I was 17 at the last pediatrician

Age of 15

I was 10 years old when our family moved to a different state. Mom thought that I was soon outgrowing going to a pediatrician so the only new doctor that we had was a family doctor. He was great and I never was bothered having to go see him. He was very patient and always took pains to explain everything to both me and my mom. I went to him for 10 years before ever seeing a GYN.

can you relate a little more what were your experiences at the health service of the university attached to a medical school ? and at the student health service at college ?

17-18. Was brought to the doctor my dad saw for a few years.

I still see a pediatrician

I was 9 the last time I saw a pediatrician. A few years later I was switched to the Family doctor.

19 for me

My dad took me to his doctor starting at 13. But I saw a pediatric doctor until then.

Age 16

I was 15 just before my 16.

Last time I saw a pediatrician I was 17. I had since been to different pediatricians, family doctors, and an internal medicine doctor for physicals in between, but went to a pediatrician that saw me at birth.

I got to drive myself to the exam and thought it was strange that he helped me unbuckle my jeans and lowered my underwear for the genital and hernia exam while I was lying down for the abdominal exam. He was thoughtful enough to even help me stand up to repeat the exam with my pants and underwear cuffed at my legs so I wouldn't fall down.

For me I was 16 or 17 years old when I moved from pediatric to adult medicine.

The last time was when I was 16 years old.
