1。“预防性筛查非常重要。不要忽略它们。结直肠癌的筛查,乳腺癌筛查,宫颈癌筛查以及其他预防性测试和筛查都是患者保持健康的方式,也是尽早诊断重大诊断的最佳方法。life-altering diagnosis caught earlier equals a potentially better outcome for many people. When healthcare providers remind you of these things, they do so because it could mean the difference between living a long, healthy life and not. Don’t write off their recommendations because you think they are annoying, you don’t have time, or you don’t have symptoms."

4。“Please teach your children good dental habits at an early age. Instead of asking your child to brush their teeth and assuming they do it, make sure they do it by helping them. If they can’t write their name neatly, they don’t have the dexterity to properly brush their teeth. Teach them the importance of floss as well! A small cavity as a child likely turns into a larger filling as an adult — which doesn’t last forever and will need to be replaced eventually. That means a crown and/or root canal, and in some cases, pulling the tooth altogether. So many adults come in and say that the importance of brushing and flossing wasn’t stressed in their home growing up, and they have to get a lot of dental work done as adults. A lot of dental work can be avoided if preventative measures are taken at home at an early age."
5。“我们需要了解所有[患者]药物是否处方,在柜台上,甚至是您只需按需要或偶尔服用的药物。处方和OTC药物与其他药物互动是很常见的。请不要''忘了告诉我们您的维生素和补品。当我们问您是否喝酒时,我们不是在问您是否是酒鬼 - 再次,某些药物与酒精相处不好。请不要生气。我们问这个问题。”
6。“这里的医生。即使我不同意在线医疗建议,我们的工作也是要告知和防止它。检查从未伤害任何人。这是我的主要症状,值得检查:疲倦。疲倦并非总是意味着您的压力或懒惰。简单的血液测试可以告诉我们很多有关此事的信息,并希望您能在短时间内回到正轨。”
7。“I’m not in the medical field yet, but I’m in undergrad to become a PA and am almost certified as an EMT. One of my EMT instructors shared a story about asking a patient about their pertinent medical history, specifically high blood pressure. The patient responded they didn’t have high blood pressure, but later stated that they took medication to lower their blood pressure. Technically, they were right in that they didn’t have high blood pressure at the time (because the medication was controlling it), but they still had the condition of high blood pressure. Luckily, it didn’t affect the treatment at that time, but if that hadn’t been specified, then certain medications could have been very detrimental to the patient. Long story short: If it’s a condition you’re taking medications for or have been diagnosed with, even if it’s well-controlled, tell your medical professional! In the best case scenario, it doesn’t matter. But in the worst case scenario, it could be deadly."

8。“Don’t go to the ER for your eye problems. Most doctors spend about two weeks in medical school learning about the eyes and will often just prescribe you antibiotics and send you on your way. Always see an ophthalmologist or optometrist to make sure it’s not serious!"
9。“Gum disease. Once you have it, you need to treat it before it gets worse. A lot of times when patients get diagnosed with gum disease and are recommended a treatment to lessen the severity, they don’t do it because they don’t know how severe it can get. Gum disease is a main reason why people lose their teeth, not just cavities! Also, gum disease is related to heart disease, joint disease, certain cancers, and pre-term birth (for pregnant patients). So, if your dentist or hygienist is recommending treatment for your gum disease — do it!"

13。“Chest pain. I can’t count how many times we’ve received messages through the online patient portal about someone experiencing chest pain, or they casually mention it halfway through their appointment. Every single time we hear those two magic words, we need to stop what we are doing and run multiple tests to ensure your heart is okay. Don’t brush off chest pain, even if you think it’s not important or could be nothing."
