That is hard. My own gynecologist of 11 years changed to practicing for an HMO earlier this year, and I am going to miss her. She was with me through a couple of problems and also did my surgery. I can't see her anymore because I'm not part of the HMO. In fact, she will lose all of her patients (her choice, of course). I wish health care wasn't so fractured, with your insurance dictating what providers you can see. I wish you could just see the best doctor for your situation without having to worry what HMO they work for, what provider network they're part of, etc.
