I'd also recommend -potentially- seeing this second opinion pdoc more than once; it's hard -I think- for a pdoc to come to a responsible opinion about someone by only meeting with them once.
Assuming things go alright during our initial appointment I will keep seeing both of them until I can hopefully figure out who I'm more comfortable with.
