The experiences and needs of people seeking primary care for low-back pain in Australia People seeking primary care for LBP in Australia do not report high satisfaction with care and are consulting multiple practitioners for treatment. Patients are using multiple treatment modalities and value many treatments that are not endorsed by current guidelines. The results illustrate that the path between EBP guidelines and person-centred care is difficult to navigate in clinical practice. However, patients with LBP clearly want more person-centred, individualised care, and for clinicians to provide more education about their LBP and how to manage it.
