[quote=Anonymous]I work at an urgent care and maybe it’s the low expectations (like, I’m not going to solve your underlying chronic medical issues today, unfortunately, and all parties seem to know this fact) but I find the majority of my patients to be pleasant and appreciative of the short term, immediate problem-focused help that I can provide them. I think it also helps that all parties are aware that there is going to be somewhat of a wait to be seen so it doesn’t come as an unexpected surprise when you are seen an hour after you arrive. Also, any patients that I can just tell I’m not going to jive with- that’s also fine, it’s easy to be pleasant and professional in a 10-15 minute urgent care visit no matter who the patient is or how they are acting. Because I know this isn’t a patient I’m going to have to spend hours a week on, largely unpaid, for the foreseeable future despite their abrasiveness. It’s a short term relationship for both of us, and we both know it. Anyways, 10/10 recommend for any docs experiencing burnout in your current practice. [/quote]
