> Ya, the ego thing might be a problem. I guess it would depend on how the subject was broached with the pdoc. If phone consultation was pursued, I guess the person could ask for a faxed copy of the recommendations to take to a new pdoc or even a family doctor. But, who knows. It would be nice for find a similar list compiled for Canadian pdocs. There is a very well-respected mental health hospital in the city where I live in Canada. Maybe I'll call to see if such a list exists, just for my own information.

The faxed copy of recommendations might work - if it's tactfully brought up and shown to the Canadian doctor. (It's too bad we have to worry about dealing with the huge egos of these doctors!) But someone would have to spearhead any action for Linkadge now because he doesn't appear to be up to it.Maybe you could e-mail Dr. Goldberg to request that he add doctors outside of the U.S. to his list.
