Dr Maxine Szramka provides a comprehensive assessment of your Rheumatology needs.

​

To assist her in being able to provide the most thorough assessment at the time of your appointment it is important to make sure that you have a few things with you at the time.

​

For your first appointment with Dr Maxine please make sure that you bring:

​

• A copy of your referral letter from your GP or referring doctor

• A copy of the reports of any x-ray or other imaging tests over the last year, particularly ones relevant to your area of pain

• A copy of the results of any of your recent blood tests ordered by your GP, or results from the last year

• A list of all of your current medications and supplements and doses

 

AND, importantly for you:

• A list of any questions that you might need to ask and have answered. Sometimes in a consultation it is easy to forget what you wanted to ask so it helps to come prepared

• If you think you may forget some of the details of your issues, please write them down and bring them in with you to support you in your consultation.
