Anyone know of any good doctors in the Metro Detroit area?

I have a great family doctor who has been helping me manage my symptoms where he can, and filling out my disability paperwork and all that, but he'll be retiring soon. Does anyone have a specialist or family doctor in the area that works with them on these things that they could recommend? I'm mainly worried about finding someone to fill out my disability paperwork when reviews come up, because I've had problems with doctors in the past not willing to do so.

I realize this is from over 3 years ago, but did you ever find a doctor? I am new at this, still trying to confirm diagnosis, and need a doctor to write a letter for my work. I have had two refusals so far. Would love to hear about a medical professional who is helpful, if you found one! Thank you.
