It's clear you need another pdoc. I know the frustration and anger that comes when a person in that position just doesn't get it, doesn't listen, and isn't helpful. I had a rotten pdoc myself. It's important to get out of that situation and find a good pdoc. It makes a huge difference. When I did it, I felt so much more confident.

If they work together, and you signed a consent for them to speak together, they probably do consult. They probably wouldn't call it colluding, but I was in that situation as well. Bad pdoc worked with therapist. And I felt they were colluding as well. My pdoc now is completely separate from my therapist, and it feels much more like pdoc's primary interest is me.

I do hope you aren't stuck with this pdoc. (By the way, if you think this pdoc doesn't have an accurate grasp of your condition, don't get your records transferred. My current pdoc didn't even ask for them, and came up with a treatment plan from a completely different and far more appropriate angle, while an interim pdoc got the records and just continued with rotten pdoc's treatment plan.)
