What questions should I ask my doctor?

We will describe what questions should I ask my doctor.

1. What’s the exact name – of my health problem (doctors call this the diagnosis)

2. Can you explain – it to me in simple words please?

3. What can I do – to help myself get better?

4. What medicine or treatment – do I need to take?

5. What happens if I don’t – take them, or have the treatment?

Make sure you have the answers when you leave the GPs or hospital clinic.
