Difficult Patient Satisfaction Help!
How do you guys deal with difficult patients? I had a 14-year-old basketball player come in the other day with back pain. He rated it a 7/10 when bending over and could only get down to his knees. 50 minutes later, he was able to straight-leg toe touch with his fist touching the floor. He could walk without pain. He could do high knees, butt kicks, and active warm-ups without pain. Objectively, we made a HUGE change. But he was still saying he “felt it.” So I asked him what he felt. “A stretch.” 😂 His dad was thrilled with the results. But I could tell the athlete wasn’t. And honestly, these are some of the patients I find the most difficult. When the objective findings improve dramatically, but the patient still isn’t satisfied because they can feel something, it can be frustrating. How do you guys handle these situations? How do you get the patient to understand the difference between “I feel something” and “I’m hurt”?

So I try to remember a few things when dealing with difficult patients: 1. Something in their head is telling them something is wrong, hurts, or doesn’t feel right. (Nervous system, referral pain, etc) 2. Their window of tolerance is small. Window of tolerance is something I learned from an athletic trainer turned sports physiologist. I’ll have to talk about this more during the next roundtable!
Hey y'all
Hey I'm Tyler, born and raised in Lincoln, NE. Went to UNL then was in East Texas for 4 years as a GA/ full time AT. Moved back to Lincoln now to raise a family and am in my 6th year working at my HS alma mater and am teaching Pilates on the side cause the school salary isn't enough to support a whole family by itself. Which is why I'm working to build an AT business to be able to get out of the school position.

Hi Tyler! Welcome! You’re on the right path. You’ve gotta have the dream and the goal, the rest of the business part can be learned. That’s the biggest thing I’ve learned about starting my own private AT business.
