In the coming weeks I'll be making my rounds to various physicians' offices to introduce myself as the newest pain physician (frankly, in a community that doesn't have a pain doc who is as well trained as myself, from what I've been told and from what I've seen). As such, I have a real opportunity to try to mold the types of referral patients I'd like to see. I am confident in my training, both from an interventional standpoint as well as from a medical management standpoint. And like most of you, while I understand that 'beggars can't be choosers' when starting out, I want to maximize the 'right' patient referrals, ones that aren't opioid dumps, etc. My question is- what is the best way to phrase this? What would be a solid sales pitch to primary care offices? What do PCPs want to hear? I am a solid, ethical, empathetic pain doc, and I want to make sure that that message gets across- I want to establish a solid reputation from the start. Thanks
