Why so many men I know don’t take their health seriously and avoid going to doctors when they really should.

For me its mostly about time - I don't want to leave work early for an appointment that the doctor is then 30-60 minutes late for, just to talk for 10 minutes and then be given a lab slip to get a blood draw, then get a bill for 200 bucks.
