Regular and open communication with your doctors is important in making informed decisions about your healthcare. Consider asking the following questions of your doctors so that you can learn more about your diagnosis, treatment plan and possible side effects. Since each person’s case is unique, these questions should be viewed as a starting point in communicating with your doctors rather than a complete list. Some questions appear in more than one section because the order in which patients see specific doctors may differ.
These questions have been provided by Cancer.Net (www.cancer.net), the patient information website of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO). With more than 25,000 members in the United States and abroad, ASCO is the world’s leading professional organization representing physicians who care for people with cancer.
