As to your first experience with your doctor, I would check the other doctor anyway. My latest experience was that the first meeting with my current GI went exceptionally well, on time, she paid a lot of attention to me and the staff were incredibly friendly and the next times it turned into the normal medical office: hour long waits, drug company representatives coming and being in and out before me, office staff couldn’t care less and the doctor is always in a hurry. I think this is what the system forces them to do. She’s a good doctor and does listen and is close to home, so I’m not going to bother to find someone else, but having a back-up in the sleeve is always a good thing, not to mention the need for second opinions for important decisions.
