How to prepare for a doctor examination

When a person plans his visit to the clinic, he expects a quick and correct diagnosis from the doctor, as well as the appointment of high -quality and effective treatment. But before visiting a doctor, you need to prepare a little.

one. Find out in advance a schedule for taking your doctor, his last name, name, patronymic and make an appointment by choosing the date and time of admission. Sometimes the doctor takes patients in the order of “live queue”, this also needs to be clarified. To do this, contact the clinic registry (in some clinics you can record by phone).

2. Take your outpatient card in the registry, in which there are all the results of medical examinations that you have done earlier, as well as examinations and consultations of other doctors. If you have additional results of any medical examinations (from x -ray pictures and ultrasound to certificates of vaccination and blood tests), which, for example, did not take place in this clinic, be sure to grab them with you to the doctor.

3. So that the doctor can make a holistic and accurate picture of your disease, it is necessary to take into account all the details. In a calm atmosphere, at home, think about what the first symptoms of the disease were, how long it all began, what diseases preceded the onset of malaise, and also what medications you took the effectiveness of treatment. Be sure to remember your chronic diseases, operations, treatment in the day hospital. The more details you describe your condition, the more accurately the doctor will be able to find out all the details. Sometimes even little things can be useful information.

four. Consider the questions that you want to ask a doctor: the causes of the disease, possible forecasts, methods of treatment and side effects from them. This is your body, so you will first worry about it. Usually doctors give all the necessary information, as on the Bilyak website, but if there are private questions, check individually.

5. Before visiting a doctor, do not take measures that can “grease” the symptoms. Check in the registry what special degrees of training can be made by you before visiting some doctors: gastroenterologist, proctologist, urologist, gynecologist and others.
