Do not be embarrassed to change doctors when the one you are currently using is not meeting all of your needs. It happens every day. Before you switch doctors, however, ask yourself if you might be the problem. Think about whether or not you can repair the doctor-patient relationship…ask yourself if it is worth it. Be assertive and proactive for yourself. You have a voice…use it!
