I also refused to give my third pdoc permission to request records from one or two. The second pdoc was way too influenced by what the first said, and I didn't want that to happen again.
My third pdoc was perfectly ok with that. He said he'd rather come fresh to my case and form his own opinions anyway, and that I could tell him anything about previous medication experiences that he needed to know. He then added a mood stabilizer to my mix, which was exactly what I needed. So I'm glad he did rethink my case.
Someone who is willing to do that might be a good start. You could always tell them that should they later feel it's necessary, you could discuss authorizing it then. But for now you prefer a fresh look, with no preconceptions. Unless of course there really is something he would need to know about your previous medication experiences. I had notes about each of my med trials I could give him.
