Question: Doctor's Appointments.?
Hi, was just wondering, when you go to the doctor's, if you have 2 medical complaints, would you spill them out in one appointment or would you make 2.?

Answers:
They only generally book you long enough to talk about ONE problem, so if you talk about TWO whilst they wouldnt stop you, you would make them run behind, the best thing to do is, when you book the appointment, tell the receptionist that you wish to discuss TWO things, and ask her whether she needs to book you a little longer.. They will really appreciate that! Good luck x Health Question & Answer

Just make one appointment.. However, if you are going for an annual exam (pap smear, etc) a lot of clinics will only want to take care of the annual stuff, and will want you to make a second appointment for other issues.. Just ask your clinic though!Health Question & Answer

Hello, I work in a Doctor's Surgery and the golden rule, is one problem per appointment, if you have more than one ailment, you should book a double appointment with the receptionist..
Hope this helps..
