Dismissive doctor ignores chronic pain issues

I've observed that this medical practice tends to be either overly accommodating or completely disinterested. The physician seems primarily focused on pushing my partner back to employment, despite his severe Osteoarthritis affecting his hands and feet, which significantly impairs his ability to grasp objects. He's currently prescribed extremely potent painkillers that cause substantial drowsiness, raising serious concerns about workplace safety and potential driving risks. When I attempt to discuss issues that are impacting my professional life, the doctor dismisses my concerns with a casual "don't worry about it" attitude, effectively minimizing my experiences and either ignoring them or simply recommending physiotherapy as a catch-all solution. I firmly believe this medical practice urgently requires a comprehensive overhaul, as there appears to be an alarming level of complacency among the staff, who seem more interested in maintaining a relaxed approach than providing quality healthcare.
