ummm....i dunno. Whatever his theory is, he needs to fill you in...you're kind of paying him for help, not to be turned into a guinea pig. I personally wouldn't stick with him--he clearly hasn't learned the importance of the term "informed consent"--but if you do, you need to lay down the law. Just be firm and explain that you're a grown up and you expected to be treated like one, so you expect to be given full information on anything he prescribes and you want to have some sort of input, since it is your life, afterall.
Personally, if I were you, I wouldn't stick with this guy. What he did (THIS TIME) was fairly harmless, but his approach strikes me as condescending to the point of disrespect.

Good luck!
