I need to think about this since they'll likely want me to make the appointment with a new pdoc shortly after I learn the details of the move.

I'm thinking I want to stay with the clinic where tests and notes and stuff get shared, but I'll lose the relationship I have with my current pdoc. My therapist seems to side with staying with my current clinic and being open to any changes the new doc wants to try. This is disturbing my peaceful configuration, and I can't seem to come to a comfortable, solid decision.

Any thoughts or advice?
Wow, losing your pdoc is rough. I would ask her where she's going next. You never know; she may be accessible.

However, keeping your health care in one clinic is advantageous in so many ways. I'm in that situation - almost all medical care (including mental health) in the same clinic.

If I was in the situation you're in, I'd ride with the change and see how it goes with the replacement pdoc.

Good luck, however it shakes down!
