It's not that strange. They need a special license to prescribe suboxone and even then there are usually state restrictions, like one doctor can only have so-many patients on it at once. (That's why my doctor was so eager to cut me off as quickly as possible--to make room for the next patient.)
But that also explains why "mum's the word" when you visit a doctor who is not licensed to prescribe it, or even if they are licensed and they have filled up their quota.
