Christel, might I suggest that you *not* attempt to fight the actions of one doctor by engaging another doctor to join in the fray? I can almost guarantee you that you'll end up on the short end of the deal, and having ever-increasing difficulty getting the medical care you need. Unfortunate as it may seem, the reality is that physicians, insurance companies, and pharmaceutical companies have most of us by the short hairs. While doctors can and do disparage one another in private, they will almost never do it in public - "gentleman's agreement", so to speak.
Try checking with a lot of friends and acquaintances, asking about their preferences in physicians and what it is they like about them. Unless you live in a huge urban area where one can very easily go unknown from one doctor to another, don't burn any of your bridges.
Lastly, I'm not making any excuses for the bad behavior or implied/outright insults of health-care-givers, but 95% of them will always, first and foremost, think of their own career before your pain.
