I signed up to have Dr. Baecher become my "Primary Care Physician". They sent me their standard packet of forms, including their "Welcome to Our Practice" letter. It included this thought-provoking statement:
What kind of life do you want?
I wasn't sure I understood this, so I called and spoke with them. "What if I got in a terrible accident, broke my back, and had horrible pain?" I asked. "Are you sure I should suffer in agony for the rest of my life?" Essentially, yes, was their reply. They just don't believe in alleviating pain, apparently. While it's been 2 decades since I last took opioid pain medicine, I know that it is sometimes medically necessary. To deny it to those in need is not good medical practice. In my humble opinion, it's unkind and unethical.
This doc saved my life.
Great doc, great practice.
