Bring the problem into the room
Describe what has changed and what you want help doing. Bring past reports, or ask how to send them before the visit.
If you are unsure what kind of appointment to request, ask for a visit to discuss the problem. Ask whether the person you would see can assess it.
Ask what an examination would add
Ask what the clinician wants to check and how the findings would affect the options. This helps you understand the purpose of the visit.
An assessment needing an exam or procedure that remote care cannot provide requires referral for a visit in person under the state medical boards' telehealth policy, checked September 17, 2026.
Give each proposed test a purpose
Ask what question a test is meant to answer. Ask who will explain the result and whether it would change the care plan.
Request the test cost separately. If you already have a relevant result, bring it and ask whether it answers the question.
Keep the treatment check separate
At the September 28, 2026 check, the FDA had approved no use of BPC-157 in the US.
FDA is the US medicine regulator. Being in a clinic does not answer the approval question; ask about the proposed treatment and the other care options.
