I should know this by now but...
When people use the abbreviation "pdoc" here, I've always thought it referred to "psychiatrist" or "psychopharmacologist" (i.e., a mental health specialist who can prescribe medications). That's how I've used it.
Recently I saw someone here define "pdoc" as "primary doctor", meaning (presumably) a general practitioner (GP).
So, is one use right and one wrong? Is "pdoc" an "official" abbreviation, at least for this site?
I thought I had these abbreviations and acronyms sorted out, but apparently not.
Thanks in advance!
