Well I saw my pdoc today, whom I had seen for therapy since Feb. of 2005. When she went out to have a baby, she told me that she would be doing no more psychotherapy and only med. visits, and she found me a great psychologist.
But last week I found out through the appointment desk that my pdoc is still seeing patients for therapy----so I confronted her today. She admitted that she was "finishing up" with some of her patients (How many? Don't know). Plus she has only been at the university since 2004 so how "old" are these patients? I told her that I would rather have heard the truth from her as all along I would say, you are just seeing people for med visits, right? and she would say "yes".
I feel betrayed and she has lost all credibility with me. She got rid of me in a hurry (my psychologist works for her, as the pdoc is director of the clinic).
She said she was only trying to spare me the "upset" by not telling me. ??? I'm more upset than ever, because if she had only been up front with me in the beginning I would not feel so betrayed and just when I was building up some trust in both the pdoc and psychologist.
Now I don't know how much of this the PhD knows? Maybe I can't trust any of them! Heck my pdoc's husband works for Big Pharma as a scientist (Pfizer) and she never told me that either.
I tend to stay away from people who lie to me, I'm just like that. Who can we trust? I am very hurt and disappointed in her.
