With your annual appointment, you will want to make sure you get the most information, so it is important that you be prepared for the visit. You will want to be prepared with important questions, having three or four questions about your concerns will help you to discuss them one by one and enable you with the information you need. Use your time well and stick to the point of giving your doctor your symptoms like when they started and how long it lasts so on and so forth. It is best to be honest with your primary care physician as you will not help yourself in the long run. Your doctor may not have all the answers but can give you resources to find them. If you feel your doctor is not listening or may not think your symptoms are valid, it might be time to seek out another doctor, one who will listen to your concerns and act on them to help you live a healthy life. We serve patients from Chesapeake VA, Norfolk VA, Portsmouth VA, Suffolk VA, Virginia Beach VA, and Hampton VA.
