[QUOTE="OpenWindow, post: 61719, member: 45"] Lori, I lived in St. Louis up until last year and my difficult child went to a psychiatrist through Wash U. (I'm not sure it's the same place because I don't remember Barnes being involved.) You can PM me and tell me the doctor's name if you want. We loved the program but we had to wait a loooooong time for our first appointment. I am confused to... the trials don't start until October? Are you trying to be part of a study? If it's not part of a study you can try what we did... I asked if my difficult child could be put on a cancellation list. He was and they called after about 2 months. We only had a day's notice, but they were able to fit him in a lot earlier than what was originally planned. If it is the same place we took difficult child, they have residents who do screenings and then you see the main psychiatrist. I loved it because we had a few different opinions on what was going on, for the price of one. It wasn't just 15 minutes in and out - there were real discussions about difficult child. Bad thing was, it was always slow in the summer because the residents aren't there, and every year we'd get a new resident. All in all, the positives outweighed the negatives and it was well worth the wait. Linda [/QUOTE]
