You seem to have a big problem with pdocs in general. I don't know your history, so I don't know why, and I don't think it really matters for what I am going to say. Not all pdocs are like you are insinuating... worthless was your word I believe. I have had two that cared very much about me. One I did not like her personality, but I know she cared, so I switched to this one who I like much better.
And they have been to med school, done all the training, done residency just like GPs, so to say they are not 'real' docs is kind of demeaning to their profession and the years of study they have had, I believe.
Your list of qualities in a doc is excellent. But I would like you to consider that there are pdocs out there who fit those criteria. Calling 20 pdocs would probably have the same result as calling 20 GPs, and more of them would probably be well versed in psych meds.
There are pdocs that care. Phillipa, keep searching.
