First appointment
worksheet.
A little room to collect what matters before you walk into the room. Print it, write on it, or simply use the prompts to prepare.
Education-only resource. This worksheet helps prepare for a care conversation. It does not replace assessment, advice, diagnosis, or treatment from a qualified healthcare professional.
Before you begin
Keep it practical, not perfect.
Bring a support person if helpful. You can leave any section blank. The most useful notes are often the ones that describe a real moment in your day.
