Finding a path through the health-care system is also far from straightforward for many people. A trusted primary care clinician can help you find the way.
Jeffrey Millstein is a primary doctor and regular contributing columnist for the Inquirer Sunday Health section. He was photographed Oct. 8, 2024 at his practice at Penn Medicine Woodbury Heights.A friend recently shared with me her frustration trying to navigate a health scare involving her daughter, a college student in her early 20s.
As my friend learned, navigating our health-care system on your own can be a topsy-turvy experience, much like the world described in the children’s fantasy tale,. In Lewis Caroll’s classic tale, Alice is a curious young girl who discovers a rabbit and follows him down a rabbit hole. There she finds wonder and excitement beyond anything she has imagined. Butis also a cautionary tale, as things rarely follow the rules she is used to, which leads to many unexpected frustrations.
In my friend’s case, I arranged a visit with a family physician colleague who has committed to working closely with her daughter as they try to understand how best to address her symptoms and concerns. The primary-care physician has already relieved a lot of stress by providing reassurance that she does not have some of the diseases she feared most, and by taking a long-term interest in her health.
