Before your appointment
Keep your referral, reports and medicine list together. Write down your questions and confirm your appointment details with the team.
During your consultation
Share your concerns and go through your existing reports. Ask for explanations in plain language and take time to discuss the next step.
Preparing for a hospital visit
The team will explain the arrangements relevant to your care, including documents, preparation and support during your stay.
Recovery & follow-up
Keep your discharge instructions and follow-up details accessible. Ask the team how to contact them and what to discuss at your next visit.
Diet & lifestyle questions
Discuss your usual meals, routines and any concerns about eating with your treating clinician. The advice you receive should fit your own condition and care plan.
