What are some ways to get the most out of my visit with my doctor and cancer specialist?
To get the most out of your visit to your doctor or specialist you might find it useful to: • Request a longer appointment if you have a number of issues to discuss. • Prepare a short list of questions beforehand in order of most important. • Write down answers if possible. • Take a friend or relative for support. Remember, if you don’t understand the answers it is ok to ask your doctor to explain again. If you have difficulty communicating in English ask for an interpreter.
