Mark, I would suggest that you search these archives and listed links to arm yourself with as much information to talk to your doc. Give him as much hardcopy info as possible. He is probably concerned about his malpractice insurance. MAOI'S are listed as a potential problem (based on PDR drug-drug / food interactions-due in part to manufactures filing for FDA approval) and he wants to avoid any legal issues. The manufacture of the drug and the prescribing physician are trying to avoid one place...a courtroom. Zoloft and Buspar are great meds, but I'd try the above aproach or another doc first.
Blessings,
