Choose the question closest to yours
What happens in an online visit? Picture the conversation before arranging it.
What about a medicine offer? Ask what supports the claim about it.
Which charges should I expect? Separate the visit, extras and ongoing charges.
What can I ask the clinician? Take a short question sheet into the visit.
Beside the evidence
Choosing a medicine is not a health assessment
Picking an item on a medicine list does not count as having your health assessed. This is the medical boards’ guidance checked in September 2026.
Ask whether you can discuss your own concerns with the person making the care decision.
Read the prescribing guidance
Name the question you want answered
A useful place to pause is a clear question about your own concern. It can be as small as asking what the appointment will cover.
What am I hoping to understand?
What would I like explained before I agree?
Who will answer me after the visit?
Keep this thought
Describe what is bothering you before choosing a product.
