What it involves
A general medical consultation is an appointment with a doctor, such as a general practitioner or family doctor, to discuss a health concern. The doctor asks about your symptoms and history, may examine you, and then explains what they think is going on and the options for next steps, which can include tests, treatment, advice or referral.
Who it is for
It is for anyone with a new or ongoing health concern, questions about a medicine, or a need for a first point of contact for care. Adults, children and older people can all use general medical care, depending on the clinic.
How long it usually takes
Many consultations are short, often around ten to twenty minutes in busy clinics, and a longer slot may be available if you ask. Mention at booking if you have several concerns.
What to expect
The doctor will ask what has been happening, how long, and what makes it better or worse. They may take your blood pressure, listen to your chest or examine the area that troubles you. You can ask questions and say if you do not understand something.
Aftercare
Follow the plan agreed, and note any warning signs the doctor describes. Book a follow-up if one is advised. If a test or referral is arranged, ask how and when you will receive the result.
When to seek it
See a doctor when a symptom is new, getting worse, not settling as expected, or worrying you. In an emergency, such as chest pain, severe breathlessness or heavy bleeding, call your local emergency number.
What affects the cost
Cost depends on the length of the visit, the clinic, any tests done on the day and whether follow-up is included. HealthNaro shows a price only where a clinic has supplied a figure with a source and date.
