Bad doctors (and/or their office staff, too) can be a nightmare. It sounds like your group is. I hope you find a better group/doctor. A good one is priceless.

My psychiatrist won't even prescribe clozaril. Once I had a know-it-all psychologist telling me to tell my psychiatrist to prescribe for me. He said some of his clients did great on it. If you suffer from it and think it does you no good, I can surely understand you wanting off of it. I have read that it is one of the worst in terms of weight gain, and that it requires lots of testing. I think that's why my psychiatrist never prescribes it, though he does prescribe other meds that require some testing, like Lithium and Tegretol.
