Exam. You have to actually physically know what your baseline is for best practice. Too many HCPs have a hands off practice but it's inefficient and what If it is a patient with limited history or unrecorded info? Travellers? Immigrants? Being a doctor is more than just reading charts.

I think patient history is more important ,and one of my atends told us if you listen to patient he/she tells the problem😁

Both, there are some things you can diagnose almost solely with a physical and for other cases you need the history as well. The combination of both male the difference.

History gives you 92% of the diagnostics through clinical suspicious , 8% is attributed to physical examination and exams
