Changing the doctor Just because your doctor is not reducing the tablets, is not the right step. If your doctor is increasing the medicines, then this is likely to be in the best interest of your father's health. Still you can request him to reduce the medicines if they are too many. I'm sure he will help you, as any other doctor would do. In short, if your doctor is a well qualified cardiologist, there is no reason to change your doctor. But this is just my viewpoint ; the final decision will be yours. Thanks. Hope this helps.
