It depends on whether or not they have time. Some doctors will give you two appointments because they're really busy and others just so they can rip you off. But when you do go, tell the doctor you're here for two things and they'll tell you if they have time or not.

If you the two things will take a long time (more than the 15 min. usually allotted for appointments), let the receptionist know that you may need a little longer than usual. This way you can be certain that you will have the doctor's attention. If you make an appointment for 1 thing and then spring another on him/her the last second, they may have to rush through the second one because they have more patients waiting. I know some doc's & PAs and they say they get frustrated when patients do that because they feel like they can't give the attention their patients need and deserve.
Good luck!

because of the insurance companies squeezing every one, the doctors would not get paid for the two things, so most of the doctors I know make you make to separate appointments so they can bill them for the to separate things,
the last doctor I had was a great guy, he would listen to you almost as long as you wanted him too, but he would bill the insurance company for each separate item I told him about, or they would not pay him.
good luck

you can go with many things but stick to the most important or they may get distracted and do a lousy job. Get your moneys worth. ha as if that is possible.
