They've never seen you before, so I assume this is what a walk in would do.
A family doctor who had examined your head before might just ask, "Is it the same as before with no significant changes?" with an answer of "Yup" they can extend it because they had inspected it before. Visits aren't in isolation when it comes to family doctors and sometimes they ask other questions on other visits that they can add to your baseline when making a decision on how to approach your care.
