Shit, I have back pain a lot less severe than this fella and my primary care straight up referred me to an MRI at my first appointment, which wasn't even primarily about my back. Doctors should have to maintain an empathy license.

It's usually the insurance company, not the doctor. My wife had to do a round of PT for her badly torn meniscus before they'd approve an MRI
