Becoming a Better Patient
Tell your doctor the complete story, because even symptoms that may seem minor could be important.
Establish a timeline.
Keep records of all test results, discharge summaries, and whatever data might be needed by the next doctor.
Do not minimize complaints.
Bring important information like medications, your medical history, and a list of your symptoms in writing.
Bring a companion to help you hear and understand everything your doctor says to you.
Understand that your doctor diagnoses your condition by considering the history of your medical problem, the results of a physical examination, and the findings of medical tests.
Help your doctor see patterns by disclosing all relevant information in a concise manner.
Do not be afraid to ask if your doctor needs more information.
Find a doctor who knows how to listen.
If you think your doctor has overlooked something, tell him.
Feel free to offer your own suggestions.
Ask about when you can expect test results, and call your physician if you do not hear about the results.
Do not think that "no news is good news."

Always keep call device within your reach to call your nurse when you need help.
