I found out the hard way that every doctor that specialize in a certain area is not certified to do so. Any other words, some doctors are ob/gyn but they designate themselves to be fertility specialists. I did not know that the doctor I was seeing two years ago was not certified as a fertitlity specialist because he referrred to himself as one. I was very angry when I found out. Knowledge is the key!!
Also, remember to get copies of your medical records so you can have it with you when you find a new doctor. Take it with you during consultation. This will let the new doctor know that you are serious and you care about your body!!!!
