Bring the pieces of your health story
Bring your current medicines or a list of their names and doses, any recent test reports and details of allergies. For a child, bring their vaccination card and any growth records you have.
Write down when symptoms started, what makes them better or worse, and the questions you want to ask. You are welcome to bring a family member for support.
Before you leave
Ask what the plan is, how to take any prescribed medicine, when to return and which warning signs need urgent help. If something is unclear, please say so — it is your health and you deserve to understand.
