It can be emotionally difficult to change doctors. There is a certain security in working with the doctor who has seen you through to this point. Or you may be concerned about hurting the doctor's feelings.

It takes your time and energy to change doctors. It can also be expensive. For example, there may be additional co-pays and repeat testing. 

Still, there are times when a change is the right thing to do for your health -- and your life. Of course it may be a necessity if a doctor stops accepting your current insurance plan.
