Abstract
Most primary care physicians are not comfortable treating patients with chronic nonmalignant pain. Education increases primary care physicians' comfort in managing these patients. Increased comfort was associated with the willingness of primary care physicians to take charge of managing chronic pain. In addition, physician comfort is greatest when pain management skills are taught after residency training.
