Before Your Visit
Think about what you want to know and write down your questions.
Ask about your health, any treatments, or things you're curious about.
Write down exactly what you want to know so you don't forget.
Take your list with you to your doctor's appointment.
If you're not sure what to ask, ask your parents or a grown-up for ideas.
Don't be shy—ask your questions and listen carefully to the answers.
If you don't understand something, ask the doctor to explain it in a different way.
Thank your doctor for answering your questions and helping you understand your health better.
