Critical Care First Consultation

A first consultation is typically the first step when seeking medical advice. This appointment may be with a primary care physician or a specialist. During the appointment, the doctor will gather information about the patient's symptoms, medical history, and any other relevant information. They may perform a physical exam, order lab tests, or recommend imaging studies to help diagnose the problem.

After gathering information, the doctor will usually give the patient a diagnosis and recommend a treatment plan. This treatment plan may involve medication, lifestyle changes, or referrals to other specialists.
