      Typically, your Pediatrician will refer you to a specialist if they believe it to be necessary. You can also explore your symptoms or research your diagnosis to see what kinds of providers commonly treat your health condition in Louisiana, US.

      Should I get a second opinion from another Pediatrician in Louisiana, US for my health condition?

      When you’re making important health decisions, it’s always recommended to get medical opinions from more than one provider, whether that be another Pediatrician or a specialist in Louisiana, US. If you just received a diagnosis from you Pediatrician, but something in your gut tells you to seek more guidance, it’s OK to consult with another doctor in Louisiana, US to get additional insight into your condition and care. Second opinions are highly valuable because they can either confirm or disprove your original diagnosis or provide different perspectives from different Pediatrician. Most doctors, including Pediatricians, will not get offended and welcome second opinions, especially if you were diagnosed with a serious or rare condition. You can even use MediFind to search for another Pediatrician or specialist in Louisiana, US who can provide a second opinion.

      How do I find a specialist in Louisiana, US, in addition to my Pediatrician, for my specific condition?

      There are over 7,000 conditions that providers, including Pediatricians and specialists need to treat. With so many conditions, it is nearly impossible for any provider to be an expert in every unique condition, even in just one geographic area. However, plenty of research has shown that experience is the best predictor of expertise, and it is important to find a doctor who has a lot of experience with your particular condition. MediFind can help you find a doctor or a second opinion for your condition. 
      When talking with your Pediatrician, be honest and don’t hold anything back, since your doctor can only help you with the information you give them. Understanding the full picture will give your Pediatrician more to work with and help them provide you with the best care.

      How can I learn about the latest research and medical advances my Pediatrician may know about?

      Pediatricians know there is new scientific research happening all the time, and in fact, it’s estimated that the total body of medical knowledge now doubles every 73 days. That’s a lot of information to keep up with, even for an excellent Pediatrician. MediFind can help you explore the latest medical advances, research, and breakthroughs for your health condition, giving you access to the same cutting-edge information as your Pediatrician.

      How can I research clinical trials my Pediatrician might tell me about, especially ones that are located in Louisiana, US?

You can also learn more about what to consider when exploring clinical trials that you may wish to discuss with your Pediatrician.

      What should I bring with me to an appointment with my Pediatrician in Louisiana, US?

      Bring your list of concerns (or reasons for your visit) with you on a piece of paper or your phone, so you can easily recall them when speaking to your Pediatrician. You may want to consider bringing a friend or loved one for support, and to help you recall the information after your Pediatrician visit. Bring a notebook so you can take notes, copies of your medical records (dating back at least one year), a list of current medications, supplements and allergies to medications, your family history of disease, and a list of symptoms (and details about how long they last and how often they occur) to discuss with your Pediatrician.

      When talking with your Pediatrician, be honest and don’t hold anything back, since your doctor can only help you with the information you give them. Understanding the full picture will give your Pediatrician more to work with and help them provide you with the best care.

      How can I get the most out of my Pediatrician appointment in Louisiana, US?

      Being a “good patient” isn’t just about listening to your Pediatrician. It’s about engaging in your health together to ensure you receive a high quality of care, which is called practicing patient autonomy. It’s important to be honest with your Pediatrician, and hide nothing, even if it’s embarrassing. You should also speak up and voice your concerns, and listen and ask questions of your Pediatrician. You may also consider doing your own research on your condition and talking to other patients before or after speaking with your Pediatrician.

      What questions should I ask my Pediatrician?

      A few topics you may wish to ask your Pediatrician about include: diagnosis details, symptom management, medical care, second opinions from other Pediatricians, whether you should see a specialist in Louisiana, US other than your Pediatrician, treatment plans, side effects, and expectations for follow-up appointments with your Pediatrician.

      You should always contact your Pediatrician’s office to make sure they take your health insurance. Every Pediatrician has different arrangements with insurance providers. The most commonly accepted insurance in Louisiana, US may not be the same as elsewhere, but some of the largest insurance providers are: Anthem/Blue Cross Blue Shield, Centene, UnitedHealthcare, Humana, HCSC (Health Care Service Corporation), CVS Health/Aetna, Kaiser Permanente, Molina Healthcare, and Cigna.

      How far should I travel to find the best Pediatrician in Louisiana, US?

      Despite our increasingly connected world, there are times when you need to see your Pediatrician in person. For Pediatricians, this study concluded that people typically only travel about 18 minutes. So, a good rule of thumb is to select a primary care physician that is located near you, somewhere between 15-30 minutes away. For more specialized care, you may need to travel considerably further, but look for specialists within 45 minutes of your home in Louisiana, US if possible.

      In recent years, many Pediatricians  have also adopted telehealth, also commonly called telemedicine, which is the use of digital technology to provide or supplement patient care. Telehealth can help reduce the burden of physical travel to your Pediatrician in Louisiana, US. You might wish to consider contacting your Pediatrician’s office to learn about the telehealth options they offer, as well as your insurance provider.
