Can you just stop going to a doctor who prescribed you beta blockers?
July 5th, 2009 Posted by: admin
I just started taking Atenolol last month. I was supposed to have a followup appointment this week. I am wanting to change doctors though. Can I just stop going to my current doctor? (I’ve had a total of maybe 8 appointments with the particular doctor.
I don’t actually have a big preference, but the oral surgeon planning to pull my wisdom teeth soon told me that I need to find a new doctor.

I am currently going to the student health center at the University I attend. They have not actually diagnosed me with a particular problem, but just trying to ease the palpitations and rapid heart rate that I am having.
I can’t get my teeth pulled until they have some type of diagnosis I guess. The whole situation confuses me a bit.

I would recommend that you go to the follow-up as you continue your search for a new doctor. I am assuming you have been put on this medication for a certain condition and it should be followed. Plus, if you need a refill while you are still looking the current doctor can do that (and you don’t have to tell them you are looking for a new practitioner)

Just let him know so you can get your file if necessary.
Unless you just want to avoid him all together, just give his name/telephone/address as a referral to the next place you go. Then they can contact him when they need to.

To get a second opinion, happens quite often, especially when patients lose their trust with their present doctor. You can try talking to your doctor during your appointment and asking his diagnosis on your condition. If you find his answers unsatisfactory, or he is reluctant to answer you, then you may definitely want to change doctors.
You can ask your oral surgeon to recommend you one since he is the one who suggested it in the first place. Just make sure you are able to request your previous health records, if any, from your old doctor so that the new doctor can check your medical history.
