The pain clinic at Uw has to be the worse organisation, or lack there of. Referrals are not made from the physicians you see at the UW for 2 weeks, and that is after you have called several times. The schedulers for appointments are not well trained, or just don't care. If a physican has left the services of the UW and you need to make an appointment with someone, they can't figure out if you are considered a "new patient" or a current one, since that doctor has left. That takes a week to 10 days. The schedulers are rude at times, which doesn't help when you have pain. Next stop, Swedish, UW gives poor service.
