Appointment was first meeting post op. Not sure if I had met doctor before. As meeting was at doctor’s request, would be good to start with an explanation of the purpose of the meeting, what he hopes to get out of it. Probably also good to start with simple medical terms and get more technical later as required. And explain terms and reasoning, don’t assume patient will understand (or at least ask what their level of understanding is). And if hoping to be a relatively short meeting, then maybe explain this at the beginning (even with prompt that this would be a good thing, even if the patient has been waiting). Doctor’s manner was calm, friendly, pleasant- just maybe a bit more explanation needed.
