⚠️ The trap
In English, 'the doctor visited me' means a house call. In Italian, 'il dottore mi ha visitato' is the standard way to say the doctor examined you — even in the clinic.
To say "to go to see a person or place" in Italian:
visitare (same meaning, plus medical use)
"visitare" in English means:
to visit (a place); to examine medically (a doctor visits a patient)
Example
"Il dottore mi ha visitato stamattina."
"The doctor examined me this morning."
