Sounds like your pdoc just sucks. Mine keeps up better than that and she's running the residency program for a huge hospital as well as seeing patients part-time. Granted her secretary is awesome at reminding her to do things like call in scripts but however it gets done it is done.

There is no excuse for your pdoc to act like that.

I totally understand being too overwhelmed to do the dr search thing. I haven't had to do that in a long time but it sucks since you never know what you'll get. I just had an encounter a few weeks ago with a surgeon who was obviously completely freaked out by my psych stuff. I need him to remove my gall bladder, not treat my psych stuff (and after my appointment he's not even doing that). It gets so frustrating trying to be considered a person, not a person on psych drugs and even more so if they know that clozapine is a sign that treatment hasn't worked well, leading to more jumps in their head. Hopefully pdocs don't do that but I've seen them do it.

I wouldn't give up on finding another pdoc who will do clozapine. If you can go to a bigger hospital, especially a teaching hospital, you'll probaby have more luck. I drive 2.5 hours each way for my pdoc but it's totally worth it in that I can be on clozapine and emsam, both drugs that aren't prescribed very often. And if my pdoc retires or something there are lots of other pdocs who will have experience with the meds.

Could the IOP doctor call your doctor?
