Yep, a good doc, a REAL good doc, can make a world of difference. Mine too is superb. Mostly in terms of bedside manners, willingness to try anything, and lightening fast response to my phone calls. I feel the same way as you about wishing everyone could see my pdoc.
But now I have a problem. He has been talking retiring for months already. Actually he was supposed to have been done already. It looks like the end of this summer is the definite end. Yikes! At this point he is Head of Psychiatry at two different hospitals in two different states (spends half the week in one and half the week in the other), and is a consultant to various institutions. I was surprised today to find out I am his only private practice client he still sees! But regardless of where he is or what he's doing, he's always right there for me whenever I need him. That to me is how good doctors should be. I'm scared to death I won't find anyone like him. He admits he doesn't know anyone worth recommending. Ohh mannn.
