Create a summary statement for your provider
This section focuses on the basics of a medical summary statement—starting with key identifiers like name and date of birth, then narrowing in on the purpose of a specific appointment. It emphasizes refining your broader “mission statement” into clear goals for the visit:
what you need,
what you want to address, and
how you’ll know if it was successful.
You’ll review example language, update your medication and supplement lists (including any reactions or concerns), and learn how to pull relevant details from prior family history or timeline work to support the goal of the upcoming appointment.
