Encourage : You to contact the doctor's office. Let the staff know about your fear. They can help to make the process easier for you. If you have a generalized fear of medical care that is more along the lines of a phobia - consider consulting with a psychologist. Cognitive behavioral therapy may be very beneficial for you.
