Frequently Asked Questions

Q1. Why can't I talk to my doctor on the phone?

FAQ
A4. The after-hours clinic is often extremely busy seeing patients. They do not have quick access to your records and are not typically able to refill medications. Refills should be obtained from your regular doctor during the normal clinic hours. It is also Tanner Clinic policy that pain medications will not be called-in by the doctor on call. This is a medical legal decision which protects us from prescribing controlled medications to individuals with whom we may not be familiar.

Why is my doctor too busy to talk to me?

Frequently Asked Questions
Your doctor is avoiding your questions, because he can't answer them. He feels that in order to keep you as a patient, he must convey a sense of wisdom and knowledge that he doesn't really possess. We assume that doctors have all the answers, but they don't. As a matter of fact, doctors have the same problems, questions, and fears as their patients. Ask your doctor to be honest with you about his limitations. If he avoids this question, or acts offended, then you need to find a new doctor.

How do I talk to my doctor about urinary incontinence?

Urinary Incontinence
Most people don't want to talk to their doctor about such a personal topic. But keep in mind that urinary incontinence is a common medical problem. Millions of women have the same problem, so your doctor has probably heard many stories like yours. Even if you feel shy, it is up to you to take the first step. Some doctors don't treat bladder control problems, so they may not think to ask about it. Others might expect you to bring up the subject.

Why can't I talk to the City Prosecutor about my ticket over the phone?

Citations are formal and official proceedings. They require serious attention and require face to face communication. This is a protection for you because it helps prevent persons unrelated to the case from inquiring about the details of the case. It also allows the City Prosecutor to better identify the person he/she talked to regarding a case. Parking infractions are not handled by phone because of the high number of tickets and the minor fines involved.

My doctor won’t talk with me or answer my questions. What should I do?

ZAP•FAQ
Remind your doctor, that you are the patient. You've got the condition. You deserve the right to understand your treatment and have your questions answered. If your doctor doesn't correct that behavior immediately, then FIRE him or her ASAP - and find someone you can trust! A lack of confidence in your caregiver can lead to other problems and not all of them are emotional. You (or your insurance) pays them. They work for you.

The body must keep all things within a balance and we want to maintain that balance. Rule of thumb, as long as you are seeing slow steady subtle changes, remain on the lower dose.
