Do you have regular checkups years after surgery?

I had my pouch done 28 years ago, and takedown 6 months after that. I had a couple instances of pouchitis, and food poisoning, but haven't had anything since, and haven't seen a GI Dr in 25 years.

Last GI Dr I saw said only needed to see him if I had problems.

I'm curious if people are having regular pouch checkups, or at what frequency you see  GI specialist, even if you are not having problems.
