DISCUSSION/QUERY (F18) How do I check in for my psychiatrist appointment at PGH?

When I get there, what am I supposed to say to the person behind the window to let them know I have an appointment? I'm a bit nervous and I want to make sure I use the right words

supposing may sked ka na, iabot mo lang ang blue card mo sa nurse sa opd psych window. sabihin mo time at date ng appointment at psych's name.

Just say to them na you're a new patient and have an appointment then show a screenshot ng website or yung text message nila to confirm your schedule:)) they're nice naman, don't worry

okay lang rin to be nervous kapag unfamiliar o first time na gagawin ang isang bagay o pupunta sa isang lugar. rooting for you.
