When having a consultation with a potential primary care physician, can I address my current health problems?

Question

I'm 80-90lbs. overweight (like some Americans) and I lost about 20-30 lbs. so far.

I now have new health insurance and I need to get a new primary care doctor. How do I address my current health problems with my potential new doctor? Do I tell him/her what I'm doing to remedy the problem and ask for any suggestions?

Answer 1

Yes. Tell he/she everything that you are doing. What medicines (if any) you are taking. They need to know  EVERYTHING about your health
