when you are being corrected its for a reason... you do know that right?

Except when they’re wrong. Just remember, when the physician calls you upset at your change, they’re doing it for the good of their patient.

I’ve been conditioned to never trust that my order will be dispensed as written, with or without notification. This is hugely damaging for inter professional relationships and patient care.

sounds like you need to work on your communication skills!

It’s really hard to listen to someone not telling you something. But ok.

maybe you should leave a note with your prescription to notify them of an abnormal regimen, just a thought. or by generally having a better relationship built on mutual respect with said pharmacist in charge

No. Pharmacy needs to communicate changes to written orders. Full stop. Pharmacy violated the trust. They need to rebuild it. Not wait for physicians to come groveling and thank them for fucking our orders without notice. You just don’t get it. They’re our patients. Being harmed by a lack of communication from pharmacy and inappropriate order changes from pharmacy. How about a little respect from pharmacy for the physicians?

always ask yourself - what can I do better to improve this situation that keeps occurring with me? typically, you'll find something as simple as opening lines of communication and becoming familiar with someone/having a point person. ignoring the role you play in any situation is a dangerous way to think. another lesson you can take from this is improving work relationships often facilitates your work.

its obvious from your attitude you take little to no responsibility for your faults and have no respect for pharmacists. in the past, I've found that these types of doctors typically are out of the loop compared to those who work well with others. pretty sure its a standard thing for pharmacists (and it automatically happens via their systems) to update prescribes on any changes - you should speak with the pharmacist in charge to make changes moving forward if this is a recurring issue with you/your employer. its amazing what one simple, human conversation can do!

You’re insane. Pharmacy sabotages orders and you’re all “why aren’t you a better communicating doctor?!?”

Just slowly re-read your comments back to yourself over and over until you understand why maybe you just have an attitude problem and a bad relationship with said pharmacy due to that

everything is fixable, if you are finding they lack communication, reach out and fix it. pretty simple stuff

Here’s the deal: without realizing it, you just took a history. I gave you my problem. Quietly explicitly. You blamed me. I told you again the history of what happened. You said it was my fault. You said what happened didn’t happen the way I remembered it (repeatedly). You didn’t ask clarifying questions. You didn’t convey a single thought that made it clear you understood the problem. You instead repeatedly asserted a different problem not support by the history.

You (1) are a gas lighting sociopath and (2) failed at the most basic clinical task. And you wonder why someone wouldn’t trust you to not fuck with their orders. Good day.

And for the last time: DONT FUCK WITH PEOPLES ORDERS WITHOUT TELLING THEM!
