Gastroenterologist angry at me why i got second opinion and refused to treat me. isn't this arrogance?

I have acute IBS and the treatment with this gastroenterologist were not going anywhere. So i went to another gastroenterologist, who put me on a new medication. I had appointment with this gastroenterologist today and he got mad at me why i went to the other gastro-enterologist. He then said, "i will not treat you now. Don’t even bother anymore to come here"

Basically thats all he did and he will bill my health insurance company several 100′s of dollar for this "scolding only". Is this fair? As a patient why can’t I see another gastro-enterologist for relief or get second opinion? Is that not my right?

This gastroenterologist was so pissed at me, he was like fuming. Why should he get his money today? Please tell me. I went to him for hemorrhoids and he REFUSED to treat me because "you dared to go to another gastroenterologist". Is this fair?
To whom can i complain of such conduct? He plainly refused to treat me. Is this even legal?
