New from NIH Senior Health: How to Talk with Your Docotr

How can you make sure you’re getting the most out of your visit with your doctor or health care provider? Should you make a list beforehand? What should you share? What should you ask? How can you recall the important things you and your doctor discussed?

These and other questions are addressed in four new videos added to the Talking with Your Doctor topic on NIHSeniorHealth.gov, the health and wellness website for older adults.
