Can you change your neurologist?

Please let me start off by saying I'm not whining or being ungrateful...my current neurologist has been very efficient in organising scans and treatment over the years. But...I am wondering if I can change my neurologist. When I saw him about a year ago he encouraged me to get back with my ex husban...
