Searching for a new pdoc

DX'd - Other

I’ve been feeling high (manic) this past month and this lady says that she is too busy to help me at the moment
Her office staff suggested that I go into emergency inpatient care (whatever that ■■■■■■■ means)

I’ve called her office at first and got no response so I emailed her and this was when an office staff member relayed her message back to me

Now I know that she doesn’t care about her patients

I’m in the process of seeking out for a different psychiatrist now.

I can also tell that my case is too complex for her to handle

Good riddance

Yeah, I’m lucky I found the first psychiatrist being the best one. He trusts my family to take it seriously.

I hope you can find the right pdoc, it does make all the difference in the world.

That’s awful @Wave I’m very sorry. Hopefully you find a better doc soon.

You can call on your insurance card and they will give you a list.

Then you can search the docs online too. Like for their reviews. Just to see what others are saying. That might help you decide. Hope that helps you.

Mine is not the best either. But that could be my paranoia.

I don’t know @Ribbit
Maybe she’s really that busy, who knows

I see her in 2 weeks and may keep the appointment

IMO there’s very few good psychiatrists out there

I know it’s always a hassle trying to find a good doctor but I’ve finally made up my mind.
I’m going to drop her like a hot potato
I’ve given her enough chances.
This woman doesn’t care about her patients

I had 2 pdocs for the last 6 months. I dropped the new one and went back to my old one.

I wouldnt drop your current until you have found a good replacement

You’re welcome. I like my pdoc a lot. It’s important. I found her through talking with my hospital where I was originally hospitalized and diagnosed. They recommended them for partial hospitalization. If you’re comfortable, you can call a local hospital and ask which outpatient psychiatric facilities they recommend.
