My T can't write prescriptions, and my pdoc is nothing like what you said!!

Both my T and pdoc are independent, but they have worked with each other for many years. The reason I have this pdoc is that. My T recommended her to me when I needed a pdoc in town, not in the city where I went to college.

My pdoc not only spends time talking and listening, she also doesn't push any meds on you and lets you have a say in your treatment. A good example of this is how I'm no longer on Viibryd and am on Zoloft. I specifically asked to be taken off Viibryd and she asked if there was any particular med that I wanted from past experience, and there was. My T has literally nothing to do with my meds! she just knows what I'm on and how much. Beyond that, she doesn't touch that zone at all.
