I can think of plenty of other reasons. A friend raved about their pedi and urged all her friends to try him/her/it. A pedi opened close to their house, or close to Mom's or Dad's work, or close to the day care, whom they tried and decided they didn't like the care there. Etc, etc. Not that I'm saying you *have* to see them -- I don't know the legalities or physician ethics on that. But I don't think you have to assume that they were unhappy just because they left.
