National medical associations continue to report staffing strain across outpatient and primary care settings

PLANTATION, FL — November 14, 2025 —
National data from the AMA, AAMC, and NAM continue to show ongoing staffing shortages and increased recruitment pressures across healthcare organizations. Clinics in primary care, specialty care, and outpatient settings report elevated workloads, expanded administrative responsibilities, and ongoing challenges associated with hiring and retaining qualified clinical staff.

Healthcare leaders indicate that recruitment pressure is often tied to documentation demands, workflow strain, and difficulty integrating consistent conservative-care options into day-to-day operations. Many clinics report interest in structured approaches that fit within existing appointment models and align with patient communication needs.

“Clinics routinely share that staffing pressures are intertwined with administrative expectations,” said Dr. Robert Hanopole, DC, Co-Founder and CEO of ReliefNow Laser Pain Centers. “A predictable conservative-care structure can help support clinical workflow stability.”

A framework used across more than 55 offices nationwide
ReliefNow has more than 55 offices nationwide using a standardized model designed to support conservative-care pathways. The program incorporates FDA-cleared Class IV deep tissue laser therapy within a structured protocol aimed at promoting consistency, clarity, and smooth integration into routine daily visits.

“The consistency of a structured model allows clinics to maintain steady communication patterns even when staffing levels fluctuate,” said Dr. Michael Rubenstein, DC, Co-Founder and COO of ReliefNow.

Supporting clinical workflow amid evolving workforce needs
Clinics using the ReliefNow framework report that predictable conservative-care protocols can help stabilize communication and reduce variability during periods of staff turnover. Providers indicate that patients often welcome non-invasive, drug-free options that complement existing treatment plans without requiring extensive workflow adjustments.

“Our focus is on supporting clinics as they navigate changing workforce demands,” said Paul Schweet, Executive Director of ReliefNow. “ReliefNow’s structured model helps provide continuity in conservative-care conversations regardless of staffing circumstances.”
