Pain Management Assembly Line

I went to a rehab pain management clinic for a few sessions and honestly felt like I was on an assembly line. A medical specialist would tell me to do an exercise, set a timer, and walk away without even checking if I was doing it correctly. Once the timer went off, another person would come over, give me a different exercise, set another timer, and leave again.

Most of the exercises were basic stuff I could have done at home on my own. Is this normal for pain management or physical rehab clinics? I have never experienced anything like this before and I’ve old enough to have retired from the military.

This was through a VA referral to a private clinic, and it honestly felt like they were just packing the schedule with VA patients and rushing everyone through.

Thoughts?
