2006 Chevy Aveo 4 cyl 19000 miles

Every time i stop for a traffic light or stop sign and would be threr for a bit, my engine would run hot. It would go from the middle og the teperature guage to the upper end but not in the red. This has been happening especially when it is hot outside. The fan works, but the coolant was a little low. My mechanic added coolant (I did not notice a leak) and it is running fine now. Should I still be concerned?

For good maintenance replace the thermostat could be sticking
