BEFORE YOU CHOOSE A PLAN
You don’t need all the answers.
Start with a few good questions.
Whether you’re exploring care or preparing for your next visit, this is a place to begin. Choose the questions that matter to you. Bring them into the conversation.
01
Your goals
Start with what matters to you.
“What am I hoping will change, and how will we assess progress?”
Put your main goal into your own words. Ask what a meaningful, realistic change would look like and how you and your clinician would review it.
A FOLLOW-UP TO ASKWhat would make this plan worthwhile for me?
02
Your options
Understand your options.
“What options should we discuss, including options that do not involve medication?”
Ask why an option is being considered, what alternatives exist, and what choosing to wait would involve. You can arrive with questions without arriving with a treatment decision.
A FOLLOW-UP TO ASKWhat are the alternatives, and why might we choose one over another?
03
Benefits & risks
Make room for the whole picture.
“What are the meaningful benefits, risks, and uncertainties?”
Ask what the evidence can tell you, what it cannot, and which considerations matter for your circumstances. If testing is proposed, ask what the result would change.
A FOLLOW-UP TO ASKWhat should I understand before I decide?
04
Costs & commitments
Look beyond the monthly price.
“What will this cost, including evaluation, follow-up, and any additional services?”
Ask for the full cost: the initial evaluation, recurring fees, medication, testing, and shipping when applicable. Check what is included, what is separate, and what happens if care is not appropriate.
A FOLLOW-UP TO ASKWhen am I charged, and what are the cancellation and refund terms?
05
Follow-up
Know what comes next.
“Who should I contact with questions, and when should the plan be reviewed?”
Ask how follow-up works, how to raise a concern, and what happens if the plan needs to change. Before you leave, make sure you know the next step.
A FOLLOW-UP TO ASKWho do I contact, through which channel, and when?
MAKE IT YOURS
A little room
for your own questions.
The printable guide includes space for your top priorities, questions, and next steps. Keep your notes with you and share them through your clinician’s appropriate care channel.

A LITTLE CLARITY
Before you go.
Do I need to become a patient to use the guide?
No. You can read, download, and use it with a clinician of your choice without enrolling in Reserve’s services.
Will this tell me which treatment I need?
No. It is a framework for preparing questions. It does not diagnose a condition or recommend a particular treatment.
Does downloading the guide subscribe me to emails?
No. Downloading this guide does not require an email address or subscribe you to marketing.
Where should I share personal medical information?
Use the appropriate secure channel provided by your clinician. Please do not send medical details through a marketing form, social comment, or ordinary marketing email.
