Ask the right questions

Don’t be afraid to ask questions during your appointment. This helps you understand your health and what to do next.

What preventive screenings do I need? Depending on your age and health history, your Tucson doctor might suggest certain tests or screenings, like checking your cholesterol, blood pressure, or skin health. Ask about what you should be doing to stay healthy.

What are the next steps? If your doctor gives you a diagnosis or recommends a treatment plan, make sure you know what comes next. Ask about any follow-up appointments or tests you might need.

What should I watch out for? If you’re being treated for a condition, ask your doctor about symptoms to keep an eye on. Understanding what’s normal and what’s not will help you manage your health better.

Are there local resources I can use? Tucson has plenty of health and wellness resources, like gyms, nutritionists, and mental health services. Ask your doctor if they recommend any local programs that could help you reach your health goals
