Should I buy my Psychiatrist a prezzi?

Lounge

So shes leaving around 8 of October.

Should I buy her a present to say thank you for everything shes done for me?

Or is it weird to do that?

I kinda want to buy one for her though, but is it strange to do so?

Kind regards and best wishes

Medical professionals can’t usually accept gifts from clients.

I guess it can’t hurt to try though.

If you’re never going to see her again, I say go for it.

No harm, no foul.

It’s a good idea, in case you need her as reference for something.

Hmm yea dude. Isnt a card to personal compared to like a present though?

We"re not in kindergarten dude.

I mean, a card is nice IF they don’t accept gifts.

On top of that, that’s kinda pushing it.

What about a book or a coffee/tea mug or something?

No a card is better because a gift has to be declared but a card doesnt have to because it has no monetary value

I think buying her a present is a great idea. My mom always told me, “Never be afraid to do something nice for someone.”
It doesn’t have to be expensive, it’s the thought that counts.

Ask someone who works in her office or clinic if it’s alright to buy her a present so you know for sure. (but tell them not to ruin the surprise).

One psychiatrist told me that the rules at his clinic say you can buy a food/candy/cookie etc. gift for your therapist or doctor but nothing material.

I bought Christmas presents of food for therapists in the past and they liked it. It’s a nice gesture and most people like getting gifts and most people like getting food gifts and psychiatrists are people.

No don’t. It should be weird but I’d send it to the practice or reception staff. I’ve done it before and it don’t mean anything!

I’d say no!

I’m pretty sure there are strict rules against giving your psychiatrist anything of value. Get her a card and maybe a single, yellow rose.

I’ve never done it. But I know patients who have sometimes bought a present for their psychiatrist or their nurse.
