5 Ways to Make the Most of a Doctor’s Appointment Right Now Self 2/22/2021 © IKON Images/Adobe Stock It’s Monday at 11 a.m., and you have a visit set for 3 p.m. with your primary physician. You plan to ask your doctor about a recent knee injury and intermittent headaches, but you only mentioned knee pain when you made the appointment. You’ve put a reminder note in your cellphone to also mention the headaches, but that’s as far as you’ve gotten. What’s wrong here? For one, you’ve only given your doctor part of the picture, and that means you’ll spend the first few minutes of the visit filling in the details before you and your doctor can start discussing a diagnosis and care plan. Second, the office is likely preparing for a single-issue visit and has allotted your doctor’s time accordingly.
