Do You Want to Gain Independence from an Underperforming Physician?

It’s Independence Day and if you are having issues with your current physician, maybe it’s time to claim independence from them and move on to a doctor who is able to give you the care you deserve!

Do you want to change your doctor?

There can be various reasons why you are looking to change your doctor. Maybe it’s been too difficult to schedule an appointment, because the last thing you want to have happen when you are sick is the inability to get in to see your doctor and get some medicine. Perhaps you’ve moved to a different side of town, or taken a different job and you would like to find a doctor that is closer to home or your place of employment. Or maybe, you are just having issues with your doctor and feel like you are not getting the level of care that you deserve. Whether that is because they seem to be rushing from you to the next patient, or that they simply don’t seem to be listening to you, it can become frustrating. If you fall into any of the categories listed above, it’s important to know that it is okay to change doctors.

What do you need to do to change physicians?

When you decide to change physicians there are a few steps to take. First, you want to be sure that you have found another doctor that is currently taking new patients. The last thing you want to do is burn bridges with your current physician and find yourself with no doctor. Make sure they’re in your insurance network – if you have one – and try to have an initial consult scheduled. After that, you will need to inform your current doctor that you are leaving. This is where you should request copies of your medical records. However, if you are leaving in tense times this can be awkward and uncomfortable.
