Mine includes a general practioner, dermatologist, cardiologist, and an endocrinologist. At least twice a year, all three of us have blood drawn and a routine visit at our wonderful "regular" doctors office. (Now virtual, not the blood but the visit)

I don't think it is wise to use urgent care for our medical care routinely. As we age we need to be watched for age related illnesses so that they can be treated or prevented.
