| When was the last time you saw a doctor?
If you're a man, it's probably been longer than
if you're a woman. In 1996, 74.9% of men had seen a doctor in the
last year, compared to 85.1% of women. But not everyone had
visited their doc so recently: 14.3% of men and 6.7% of women had
their last doctor visit over 2 years ago.
