Until now, reading through this thread, it never occurred to me of any comparisons-parallels between Pulaski and McCoy, certainly not between her working relationship with Data and McCoy's friendship with Spock. Because that is what I mainly remember about Pulaski, her insulting Data.
I think it was episode "Where Silence Has Lease', her asking "It does know how to do these things, doesn't it?" in reference to Data. Or mispronouncing his name or something like that. I love Data and lady, you may be the new Doc but you just off on the wrong foot with this Trekkie by doing that.
So her relationship with Data may have improved over the season but that first ugly impression has stuck with me to this day. So, yeah, not sorry at all to see you go doc.
In fact, around that time, Diana Muldaur was also appearing in the TV show LA Law. I kinda wished Pulaski would suffer the same fate her LA Law character suffered; Pulaski goes to leave the bridge, the turbolift doors open while she's talking & looking at Picard however there's no car present as she steps forward and WHOOSH!
