Be Prepared for Your Next Doctor’s Appointment
It's always good to prepared for your doctor's appointment. Here's a handy checklist of things to bring with you:
- BC Services Card or Drivers License
Eventually all CareCards will be replaced with one of these - Changes to your medical record
If you have seen a medical professional other than your regular doctor they may not have a record of any of the changes that have occurred. - A list of medications
This makes it easy for the physician to check that they have everything on file. - Alternative therapies that you have been using
Including vitamins, exercise, healing therapies. - A journal of your symptoms
- A list of your questions
But remember most physicians request that you make one appointment for one problem concern.
