How to get a 3 year old to do what you want at the “Doctor”

I say “doctor” because in general we pretty much don’t do conventional medicine, but we do make use of alternative and homeopathic medicine. Nolan has been sick literally for like 6 weeks straight so it was time to see if something more could be done.
The only problem is as soon as I told we were going to the “doctor” he freaked out a little, even though he’s never experienced anything scary at such a place before.
We needed to get him to hold the little gold metal thing with his right hand, but were having a hard time of it. Instead he kept backing away and saying,
“no, I wanna be sick, I don’t wanna get better!”
Between the 3 things listed above, we managed to get him to sit down and hold the gold thing and get his testing done. Now let’s hope he gets better!
