If you’re visiting a health care provider, here’s advice about how to get the most out of your trip to the doctor’s office.
Maybe you’re trying to get to the bottom of a mysterious ache or pain, or seemingly never-ending digestive trouble, or sleep issues, or some kind of freaky rash. Maybe you’re just knocking out your annual physical—or getting one for the first time in a few years, now that you finally have health insurance again. Whatever the reason, going through with a doctors appointment that you actually feel good about in the end is often a whole to-do.
Whether you’re heading to a doctors appointment with a specific issue you want to talk through, or you’re just looking to get the clearest, most up-to-date picture of your health possible, the way you describe what’s happening in your body is critical. “A lot of times, people will go on long, narrative excursions where they talk about what’s going on, but think about data” and real-life illustrations of what’s going on, Dr. Donovan says.
