Hi, @Itek128
My transplant center keeps the patient with the transplant team forever I think. I will be six years post-transplant this month and they are still who I turn to. They do only handle anything that is directly related to my transplant though but they are very responsive. I always check with them before I begin a new prescription that a different doctor has prescribed and for occasional other things.

I think they just feel that transplant is their specialty and that the other areas are better handled by the doctors who deal with those issues on a regular basis. They may also feel (this is just my own thought) that they don't want to step on the toes of my other doctors.

Your "name" makes me wonder if you were in the tech industry in a company off of Route 128. Were you? I ask because that's sort of my area also, although I do live in southern NH.
