Your doctor sounds somewhat uninformed. The change to the "normal" range down to 3.0 was issued by a mainstream endocrinology group in the past couple years. Seems like any doctor treating thyroid should know about it by now.
There is also a lot of disagreement about what is a good TSH level. Some doctors think people with depression need to be kept at a TSH of 1 or lower. If you click on the "Tips" link on this page there is a section about thyroid and depression. It has some discussion among pdocs about thyroid and depression.
