Quote: "With regards to sending back to the GP for tests and such, you would be surprised at how many MD’s actually GAIN respect for you. Not only does it keep them in the loop with their patients’ care, but it also gives us an opportunity to communicate professionally with them. "
This does not make us substandard to other professions, it makes us part of the healthcare team. MD's routinely get phone calls and letters from labs, nurses, PT's, medical specialists and yes, chiropodists updating them on patients. It is not uncommon that they get requests to order tests. They don't think any less of us for doing so.
Quote: "Don’t get me wrong, though – it is one of the goals of the OSC to pursue such requisition rights. I believe that the profession should evolve this way."
