Have you ever gotten a bad vibe from a doctor?

I would find another doctor or go back to your regular doctor.
It sounds like he was selling you rather than helping you.

This happened to my wife once and she never realized it. I sent her to the doctor, and she came home with $400 worth of vitamins and pills that the doc just happened to sell in her office. I immediately changed doctors.

My current doc is great. Last time, I pulled up a list of the meds on my iPhone that were covered under my insurance. He picked one that was on the list because they all basically work the same. He normally did this himself, but my insurance company has 3 plans in Texas, and he was initially looking at the wrong plan and didn't know what they covered and didn't. He also will give me samples if I only need a few days of something and he happens to have it on hand.
