STEP 3
Plan your next appointment
Now you have your goals in mind, you can start to plan your first step towards achieving them.
Before you plan your appointment, we recommend that you complete Steps 1 and 2.
Appointment Preparation Tool
Whether your appointment is a day or several months away, this tool will help you prepare for that often short, but very important time with your doctor.
Preparation is key. It’s never too soon to start planning; hopefully it’ll give you the power to share everything you want to say.
Choose one of the options depending on how much time you have. If you only have a few minutes to spare, the quick preparation session has fewer questions. If you have a little more time, the detailed preparation session is right for you.
You can always come back and complete the detailed preparation session at a later date if you don't have time now.
Why it pays to persist with ongoing appointments
It's easy to feel disheartened if an appointment didn't go the way you hoped. But, setting expectations and learning how to persist, can pay off.
