Nervous About Seeing a Patient Who Has Been to Another Pelvic PT/OT

September 16, 2024

Ever feel a little worried or extra pressure when seeing a patient who has already been to another pelvic PT/OT?

Here's the secret:

We care a lot about the patient's experience, thoughts and what they feel like was beneficial.
We don't care at all about what the other provider thought or was working on

In fact, a lot of times these patients are easier because they know what has worked in the past and what they didn't like. They're literally telling you exactly what they're hoping for and expecting from your session!

We ask early on in the session about their experience with their previous provider. If you aren't asking about this on your intake form, make sure you are!

Now if the patient is coming from another provider, either they a) had a great experience, loved the person and aren't able to go to them for some reason outside their control, or b) weren't getting better and having great results.

Either way, you're not just going to duplicate what that other provider was working on!

You're bringing your own experience, evaluation, skills and treatment philosophy to the person.

And this means you don't have to 'connect' or 'collaborate' or reach out to a past provider!

Check out the full 'sode for all the details - you don't have to feel intimidated when seeing a patient who has been to another provider!
