The 15-minute visit problem
Doctor's visits are often short. AI can help before, during, and after — without replacing a single piece of medical advice.
Before the visit
During the visit
- Bring your written list. Read it from the page — that is fine.
- Ask permission, then take notes (or ask a family member to take them).

After the visit
The big idea: AI is your prep coach and your translator. Your doctor is still your doctor.
