I've felt that or something similar. It's hard for me to shake off the sense of the pdoc, etc. as a kind of magisterial authority figure. I fight the feeling, but it still gets in the way of effectively communicating to them what I think I need.
If I could grant you a wish, it would be for all your caretakers to be herded into one conference room where they would all focus on your case, approaching it from all their separate professional angles simultaneously. Maybe they could come up with a comprehensive treatment plan. I know; I'm dreaming (for you, for me and for anyone with multiple docs and complaints).

That would be awesome. Thanks.
