I agree with you wholeheartedly, although my position is somewhat different: Any doctor who does not intuit that MOST drugs administered chronically will have a withdrawal syndrome is not competent to practice medicine. This is a trivial fact. "What goes up, must come down". Most drugs are not withdrawn abruptly: antihypertensives, anticonvulsants, etc, etc. Anything that is capable of profoundly altering consciousness is probably going to involve a withdrawal syndrome!
Doctors take an oath to "First do no harm". This doctor is in violation of that oath. It is sickening.
