When to Seek a New Pain Management Doctor

April 11, 2016/0 Comments/in Pain /by Matthew Thorson

All doctors have different practice methods, and sometimes those methods clash with patient expectations. When that happens it may be necessary to find a new doctor who better fits your needs. In this article, we are going to discuss the qualities that make up a great pain management physician, and talk about what to do if you are unsatisfied with your pain management doctor.

Qualities of a Good Physician

Here are some of the qualities of a great pain doctor:

  • A Good Listener. Your doctor needs to listen to your concerns in order to effectively treat your pain. If your physician is dismissive or doesn’t listen well, you may want to search for someone who is a better fit.
  • A Great Track Record. You want to have a doctor on your side who has a great history of successfully treating patients. Look for online reviews from other patients, talk to other medical professionals you know, and ask the doctor about their professional history.

When you are searching for a new pain specialist, keep an eye out for these qualities.

When to Look for a New Doctor

Most patients find it difficult to switch physicians, but the truth is that it’s necessary in certain situations. If your physician isn’t listening to your concerns, ignores you, or just doesn’t seem like he cares about your pain, it may be time to switch things up. In these scenarios it’s always best to move on quickly instead of drawing out the inevitable.
