BasicMed

I'm looking to transition from a special issuance 3rd class medical to BasicMed at some point in the future. Does anyone know a doctor in the Sacramento area who is familiar with BasicMed and accepts non-network patients? And if they are an AME one who actually understands the difference between a 3rd class medical and a BasicMed physical.
My previous experience with BasicMed was with an AME who looked at my CMEC and, without even talking to me, called the AMCD and read off the conditions on my CMEC to them. Needless to say I wasn't impressed.
Side note: are there any gotchas? If I get a BasicMed medical do I need to worry about the FAA arbitrarily revoking my special issuance before it expires?
