Changing Doctors Can Be Good For Your Health

If you’ve never switched doctors or if it’s been a long time, the process might seem unclear or complicated. And if it’s unclear, it’s probably hard, right? Not with Boundless Health! We recently gave you 6 Reasons to Switch to Boundless Health, and now we’re going to walk you through how and when to switch to Boundless Health. It’s probably easier than you think.

How to Change Doctors

First things first, you’ll need to call Boundless Health and tell them that you’d like to switch to Boundless Health for primary care. At this time, they’ll get you scheduled for your first appointment. Many times next-day appointments are available, but you should pick the most convenient time for your schedule.

As soon as you get off the phone with Boundless Health, we’ll send you an email with a link to paperwork for you to complete. You can fill it out before your appointment in the secure online portal, or if you’d like some assistance, you can wait until you get to Boundless Health.

And that’s it, Boundless Health will take care of the rest.

In your paperwork, there will be a form that gives Boundless Health permission to get your medical records from your previous primary care physician so you don’t have to do anything except show up to your appointment at Boundless Health.

When to Change Doctors

So, you’ve done your research on Boundless Health and know all you need to do is call and schedule an appointment, but you already have your next appointment scheduled with your current doctor. Is it okay to switch to Boundless Health now or should you wait until after that appointment? If you are investigating a health issue with your current provider, should you wait to switch?

Some resources will tell you that you should schedule one last appointment with your current doctor to tell that that you’re leaving their practice, but that’s unnecessary. If you don’t feel like you’re getting the care you need, you should not feel pressured to go again. When Boundless Health gets your records, it will include all tests you’ve had done, regardless of if you’ve discussed the results with your previous doctor. If you are waiting to discuss test results or for a follow-up on a chronic issue, please let us know when you schedule your appointment with us.

If you feel like you’re being rushed or brushed off by your current doctor or you are treated like just a number, it’s time to switch. Whether you are currently in good health or feeling under the weather, any time is a good time to switch to Boundless Health. No matter your reason for switching or your health condition when you switch, we will make sure you get the care that you need and the care that you deserve.

The process of switching to Boundless Health is so simple, the only question you’ll be asking is why you didn’t switch sooner.
