Go to the doctor, visit the doctor or pay a visit to the doctor?

Is it correct and natural to say, "to visit or go to the doctor for a check-up or should I say something else like "to pay a visit to the doctor for a check-up? If you don't use these sentences, what do you usually/normally say? Please provide some examples.

Thank you

I go to my doctor once a year for a check-up. I visit the local clinic to get a flu shot. I make an monthly appointment with a nurse practitioner to get my blood pressure checked.

You don't need to. It's a little more formal than is needed.
