Suboxone doctors are pretty strick if you start pushing off appointments. My doctor basically said to me that I need to come every month and if I start stretching out my appointments he will drop me. I must have looked shocked because he then explained that he gives me a month supply so if I start coming back every 5 weeks instead of 4 weeks then what did I magically do for that week inbetween that I wouldn't of had medicine for. Doctors expect you to take the medicine as they direct so your doctor probally figured you should have run out of medicine and therefore didn't actually need the medicine or that you were using. The last thing a doctor would want to hear is "yeah you give me 4 weeks of medicine but on some days I take half my dose blah blah blah". I'm sorry your doctor wasn't understanding, but look for one that has later hours, weekend hours, or one that you can just start a clean slate with.
