Preparing for Your Appointment

Please ask your referring physician or hospital to have all medical records sent to UT Southwestern Medical Center. We will have access to medical records for any procedures performed at UT Southwestern.

In addition to medical records, here are a few things to gather before your first appointment:

  • Insurance cards
  • Surgical reports
  • X-ray/scan results and/or films
  • Blood work results
  • Contact information for other doctors you have seen
  • Pathology reports
  • Specimen slides
  • List of current medications
  • List of questions for your physicians and/or the financial office

Because you’ll be getting a lot of information, it’s a good idea to bring a family member or friend to help you take notes and remember what your care team says.

If you need surgery, here’s what you can expect during the first appointment with your surgical oncologist. You’ll:

  • Review your medical record, including X-rays and test results.
  • Discuss your health history.
  • Discuss the potential need for a biopsy to accurately diagnose the disease and determine its stage.

Valet and self-parking are available.
