"Pdoc" (on this board) is usually slang for psychiatrist, or psychopharmacologist. There was some confusion a while back, when someone used this term to describe their primary care physician (GP or internist), but this was quickly corrected, and you can almost always assume that pdoc = psychiatrist.

Generally, "PCP" is the accepted term for primary care physician, and "GP" means general practitioner. Most of these have minimal psychiatric training -- I'd stick with psychiatrists if I were you.
