Many of us know we need to get some health screening tests done at certain times in our lives, but it is often unclear when. These screening tests help detect hidden diseases in healthy people. Many doctors often disagree on when to start having screening tests and how often. With that in mind please communicate to your doctor if you have any concerns regarding your health. Here is a brief chart to help you.
