Trying To Come Off Oxycontin And Given Tramadol For Chronic Pain But Not Working. Suggest?

I have been seeing a Physician now for about 7 yrs and in the beginning, he was prescribing pain medications with no problem but now that i ended up in a Psychiatric hospital trying to get off the oxycontin, which i have successfully been off of for a little over a year now, all he will agree to give me for chronic pain issues now is Tramadol, and it is absolutely not working, so do i just go find another Doctor that will sufficiently adrress my pain issues or is there something i could say to him to get him to understand level of pain i still endure on daily basis.

Please Help!
