Doctor visits

Check in, explain what brought you in and clarify the next step.

By the end of this lesson

Check in for an appointment, describe symptoms and allergies, and ask for an explanation or written instructions.

Practise the reception and consultation as two complete encounters, including questions about tests and a medical certificate.

Say this now

I would like to see a doctor.

Say as a manphǒm yàak phóp mǒr khrápผมอยากพบหมอครับ
Say as a womanchǎn yàak phóp mǒr khâฉันอยากพบหมอค่ะ

The consultation teaches questions, not a diagnosis or treatment plan. Give the clinician your own symptoms, medicines and allergy details. Any appointment time is an invented practice example.

Sentence shape: I → would like to see a doctor → polite ending.
