1. If  you get sick, you must go to a doctor.

2. If you get sick, you will have to go to a doctor.

I will always always use the first sentence. Recently I learnt even the  words 'will have to' simply replaces the word 'must'.

Is the second sentence fine?

The second sentence is even better than the first, especially in American English.
