hospital visit
Seeing a patient
A hospital visit is a trip to a hospital, either as a patient seeking care or as someone visiting a patient.
The phrase usually implies a brief encounter rather than an extended stay: It was just a routine hospital visit for some tests.
When visiting someone else, the focus is on providing comfort or support: We made a hospital visit to see Grandma after her surgery.
