I love this post….it means im not the only one who thinks this way:

(Copied from a Linked In post by Mark Richman, an ER Dr from New York.)

I give patients my phone number. Most doctors are terrified of this idea.

“They'll hound you for narcotic drugs."

"They'll call you at all hours."

"They'll make you responsible for everything."

But here's what actually happens:

Yesterday, I gave my number to two patients in the clinic.

One couldn't get their specialist appointment scheduled. Another was struggling to fill a prescription.

I told both: "If you hit roadblocks, just call me. I'll help you navigate it."

Other doctors think I'm crazy. But in years of doing this, patients have never abused it.

They don't want to spend time thinking about healthcare; they want to spend zero time on it.

When they do call, it's because something serious went wrong:

- Insurance fell through
- Pharmacy couldn't fill medication
- Appointment got cancelled

They're not calling to chat. They're calling because they need help getting back to their normal life.

The truth is, we assume patients obsess about healthcare because we work in healthcare.

But patients just want to get better and move on.

When I give someone my number, I'm giving them trust, and patients honor that trust.

They call rarely, but when they do, it's for real problems I can actually help solve.

Sometimes the most powerful medicine is letting someone know they're not alone in navigating the system.
