English Conversation Between Patient and Doctor - Easy English Conversation

In this post, we will give examples of conversations in English in the hospital. Conversations with doctors revolve around our condition, symptoms of illness, and explaining the body's current state. If we want to talk to a doctor in English, we must be able to explain our body condition and symptoms to the doctor so that the doctor can diagnose us better. 

Sometimes we need a doctor's help for various things such as consultation, treatment, and other medical matters. Knowing conversations with doctors in English is necessary to improve speaking skills in international languages.

In an English conversation with a doctor, we can use several ways to explain our condition. You must make easy sentences using common words to describe a specific medical condition or disease.

Melisa  : Good morning. Can you help me?

Nurse   : Are you going to check your tooth?

Melisa  : Yes, of course. I will consult about tooth extraction. 

Nurse   : Let me check the schedule. You will meet dentist Lucy on Saturday at 10 am.

Conversation Between Nurse and Patient

Nurse    :     I’m afraid visiting hours are over, sir

Melisa   :     My daughter is in room 4A.

Nurse    :     Sorry, you’ll have to come back in the morning.

Melisa   :     And leave her all alone overnight?

Nurse    :     I’m afraid that’s the policy, ma'am.

Melisa   :     Surely you can make an exception? What if she needs me in the night?

Nurse    :     Don’t worry, we’ll look after her. What she really needs is her rest.

Melisa   :     Some of her friends want to see her too. When can they come?

Nurse    :     Visiting hours are from 8 to 12 in the morning and 3 to 6 in the evening, but I’m afraid while your daughter is on bedrest the doctor has requested that only immediate family members come in to see her.

Melisa   :     Well, I guess it’s all in her best interest.

Nurse    :     Thanks for understanding. Now, I’m going to bring your daughter her dinner. Why don’t you head home and get something to eat yourself?

Melisa   :     Okay. I really hate to leave her, but that’s probably a good idea.

Nurse    :     She’s in good hands here. I’ll tell her you were here and that you’ll see her in the morning.
