Too Many Doctors to See: Is It Normal?

PCP, OBGYN, psychiatrist, and Pelvic floor PT

Pcp and ob same person, therapist, psychiatrist, ent, and audiologist. My main problem is the therapist game. I'm on my 5th therapist in 4 years and I dislike them so much.

PCP, pain physician, pain psychologist, allergist, MCAS GI specialist, neurologist, oncologist, aquatic physical therapist, and an insomnia cognitive behavioral therapist are the ones I still see regularly.. plus I’ve seen a urologist, a cardiologist, several rheumatologists, several other GIs, and more that I’m blanking on. Most of the time going to the doctor and keeping up with treatments is a full time job, it really is exhausting

4 neurologists, 1 ENT, 2 Dentists, 1 Neurosurgeon, 2 Cardiologists, 3 PCPs, 2 Chiropractors, 2 Counselors, 1 Psychiatrist, 2 Acupuncturists, 2 Vestibular Rehab PTs, and 1 Pain Doctor. 4 MRIs, 2 CT scans, 4 xrays, plenty of bloodwork, constantly upping dosage of zoloft. Still can't heal my balance and anxiety issues. But there is a quote that I took to heart a couple weeks ago: "I am dying from the treatment of too many physicians."-Alexander the Great I'm now doing Tai Chi and trying to forget about Western Medicine. I think it's helping. I hope that everyone on this page finds peace too ❤️ 🙏

Your first doctor is free. When you get to five doctors, you get a bingo! When you get to ten doctors, it's a heyyy macarena! When you get to 25 doctors, it's a blackout bingo which mean you're officially deceased. Just kidding, you get this fabulous sense of humor! 😂😭 please send help or a coma because I'm so tired. It's been 10 years and I'm so so so tired.

PCP, Cardiologists, ENT, Psychologist, dermatologist, obgyn, adding on a GI too.. it’s so much to handle

Endocrinology, psychiatry, rheumatology, dermatology, pcp, neurology, orthopedics, optometry…basically for every part of my body. Autoimmune diseases suck.

Only 1 but having no insurance makes it hard for me to get in with the physicians I need

Psych, therapist, endocrinologist, orthopedic surgeon, top surgeon (2), PT, phlebotomist, etc. Idk anymore

Currently, pcp, gynecologist, psychiatrist, therapist, and rheumatologist...

Primary, gynecologist (though I need to find new ones closer to me, I was going to my mom's clinics), psychiatrist, and I should go back to my gastroenterologist so I'm not treating my GERD with OTC meds anymore.

I’ve had to switch doctors because I have to switch insurances

Rheumatologist, Endocrinologist, Gynecologist, Gastroenterologist for SLE, and Opthamologist for Sjogren’s.

I'll admit I don't currently see all the doctors i should be seeing. Right now; primary, psychiatrist, counselor, physical therapist. Should also be seeing at least an allergist, sleep specialist, probably gastroenterologist. I do also see a gynecologist yearly but that maybe should be more.

Primary care, GI surgeon, GI physician, eating disorder therapist, trauma therapist, psychiatrist, dietician, chiropractor. I also need to see (but can’t find or afford) a dermatologist, urologist, and gynecologist. The amount of blood tests and GI testing that’s happening is insane and I’ve cycled on meds so much it’s crazy.

I just counted and I’m at a little over 30 that I’ve seen since becoming sick. And that’s not counting PTs! It’s exhausting! If you ever want to talk about it I’m here. I just try to remember that each visit is a step toward getting better!

I have a primary, psychiatrist, therapist, gastroenterologist, gynecologist, orthopedic, neurologist, neurosurgeon, ENT, allergist, and soon I'll be adding a surgeon for a possible gastric sleeve. I think that's everybody....lol

I have my primary, physchatris, a doc for my gi issues, a sports med doc, a med doc and I'm probably missing one. And o get that it's exhausting. Especially if they can't figure out what's going on

5 MDs (including 4 specialists), 2 DPT, and a therapist

13 doctor/PAs/NPs, and 2 physical therapists and a mental health therapist
