A. Part of the evaluation of the patient is a physical examination as well as a discussion with the healthcare team about the patient’s mental preparedness for treatment. Certainly the medical work-up and the treatment records are important elements, but the patient and the treatment team should meet face-to-face to establish the best plan of care.
