Med Management - Private practice or clinic?

Posted by StellaMella on October 13, 2012, at 10:30:26

I'm starting my search for my new PDOC... I've already posted about that (she moved). I have two interviews scheduled

I have an appt at the same clinic she was at with someone i've never heard of. Have no idea if its even of good fit, but it is a research hospital. I think the culture there is a little benzophobic which I'm darn tired of dealing with. However, its consistent and I know the system there.

I also have another appt scheduled with a private practice pdoc. He came recommended by a therapist i used to see. he knows my meds and said he is comfortable prescribing them. He doesn't take any insurance and you deal with him directly on all things. I would pay out of pocket, but it's not too horrible.

I've never done private practice before and it makes me nervous. Where is the support network if something happens? I've been stable for a good number of years, but ya know... There's always that "what if" in the back of my mind. It seems like w/private practice there is TOO MUCH leeway, and you could really find yourself out in the cold if they just close down or decide to fire you as a patient. Seems like they "cherry pick" their patients.

I have OCD, GAD, PD. Take Namenda 20 MG and Klonopin 1mg

Thoughts????
