i've never had a good feeling with any Pdoc. Most I have seen have never been much interested in my thoughts...seemed like they just wanted to push some drugs in me and get me out of there office.

i'm not on any medications for various reasons...most of which are connected to me just not "trusting" medications and being sick of everyone pushing them on me like it is the end-all answer.

the most recent Pdoc I went to was because my insurance was making a stipulation of continuing to pay for visits to my therapist (the same therapist I'm working with now). My therapist refered me to him and he did sit down with me to talk about my millions of questions. I was already in my "defensive mode" about medications in general, since I was being forced to see this Pdoc because of my insurance company. The guy did listen, but he was still very very cold to me. I felt like I was in a morgue. It was the most sterile place I've ever been to.

So in general I'm biased againt Pdocs and never had much liking of them...they all have seemed cold and just want to get you in/get you out.

That Pdoc I was refered to basically assessed that my anxiety of medications would offset any potential benefits and just recommended continued work with my therapist.

I agree...if they want to put you on something...they need to work with you. And I cannot ever see myself becoming connected or attached to a Pdoc.
