My worst pdoc also runs clinical trials. His answer to everything was to Up the Meds!! He never did believe the side effects I reported. When I switched to my new pdoc, we reduced some of the meds, discontinued others, and added a mood stabilizer that I can't even comprehend that the bad pdoc didn't realize I needed, given my AD response.
I know I've heard of a good pdoc who also runs clinical trials, so they it must be possible. But I do wonder about the conflict of interests. It was never disclosed to me that my old pdoc ran clinical trials, but now I look back and wonder which companies he was running trials for.
