YOu made me think. I'm actually on pdoc number 4 too! First was short lived--I was only on meds for part of a year--that was a long time ago. Second was great--I was on prozac twice for short periods--they used to think it could work that way! He was really good but I moved away. Then I had the smart, psychopharm-savvy doc with poor people skills, that I wrote about last year when I fired him. Now I work with another very psychopharm-savvy always up to date on the latest research, including on supplements,etc., very nice and personable but very quirky and never ever ever on time pdoc. Sometimes it really annoys me how late he runs. Other times I just deal with it. At least he is nice about it, whereas the previous pdoc was always late and could be rude, to boot. I try to schedule appts. accordingly. But, he knows his stuff and it feels like a joint endeavor to manage my meds and tweak my meds, and find the right combos, etc. Can't have it all. Sigh.
