Tumor is a major disease and the condition of many tumor patients can be life-threatening. Therefore, I understand the eagerness of tumor patients and their families when they come to the clinic. However, as a doctor, I would like to remind the patients and their families that they need to pay attention to some things during the consultation, so that we can substantially improve the quality of diagnosis and treatment, as well as avoid some unnecessary mistakes and troubles. So please read them in advance. 1. For first-time patients, if there are family members who do not want the patient to know about the condition, please inform them in advance. As a doctor, I suggest that the patient should be informed by the appropriate person in the appropriate manner and at the appropriate time. However, I respect the family’s choice and will cooperate with them. The premise is that the family should come to inform the patient of various conditions before the consultation, so that the doctor can have an idea. 2. For the first visit, please bring all the information related to previous diagnosis and treatment, especially the imaging data at the time of diagnosis, pathology, surgery records, discharge summary of radiotherapy, and all the results of the latest review. If you have been treated with herbal medicine before, it is best to bring the prescriptions and records of the medicine. 3. Please be sure to bring the medical record book with previous medical conditions to the follow-up examination. If you have recently undergone tests, please also bring them along with you. It is also recommended that patients record changes in their condition, common symptoms and some requests for medication to be prescribed by the doctor, and present them to the doctor at the beginning of the visit to avoid forgetting them, which will also help the doctor to better grasp the condition and improve the effectiveness of treatment. Some patients who are willing to make some important laboratory results according to the time sorted into a table, not only easy to read and understand, and the relevance of the disease can be understood at a glance, is highly recommended. 4, the patient’s future, the family on behalf of the consultation, the family in addition to bring all the above information, but also as detailed as possible to understand the patient’s symptoms and recent conditions, if possible please contact me on this site, leave your email or WeChat, ask for a symptom questionnaire, fill out the form and send back. It is also advisable to present a recent photograph of the patient’s tongue, (preferably in natural light, open your mouth and relax your tongue out of your mouth to take a picture of the tongue surface and tongue coating, and then open your mouth and lightly set your tongue in the upper dentition to take a picture of the sublingual vein). If possible, please keep the telephone contact with the patient open in case the doctor needs to understand the condition.
