Q&A with Dr. Cassagnol

What made you want to become a doctor?

I’ve wanted to become a physician since I was a small child. As I grew up, I also developed a passion for aviation, so I decided to become an airline pilot. A few years into my aviation career, I felt that I still needed to fulfill my dream of becoming a physician, so I decided to pursue medicine.

What do you wish you could tell every patient (and they would actually do) and why?

Develop and be consistent with a home exercise program because physical therapy tends to be a modality that is effective for most pain pathologies.

What is the most important factor in a doctor-patient relationship and why?

Trust. Coming up with an individualized effective plan through shared decision-making that involves both doctor and patient requires mutual trust.
