Five Questions to Bring to Your Next Primary Care Visit

A practical checklist to help patients discuss symptoms, medications, prevention, and follow-up with confidence.

By Dr. Maya Hart / Updated February 4, 2026

Start with the reason for your visit

Write down the main concern before you arrive. Include when symptoms started, what makes them better or worse, and how they affect daily life.

Review medications and supplements

Bring a current list of prescriptions, supplements, and allergies. This helps your doctor identify interactions and make safer recommendations.

Ask about prevention

Primary care visits are a good time to discuss screenings, vaccines, lifestyle changes, and follow-up timing.

Confirm next steps

Before you leave, ask what to watch for, when to return, and how test results or referrals will be communicated.
