I'm in the same boat. I have to see my doctor every three months for a prescription review, even though the outcome is always the same. She asks how I'm feeling, I tell her I feel great and she prescribes another three months. There is zero reason I need to take time off work, take up space in her clinic and take up an appointment slot for this. Over Covid, these reviews were conducted over the phone and it was perfect.
