[QUOTE="totoro, post: 32748, member: 3155"] So I never heard back from the psychiatrist! I am assuming she is not going to call? So I tried to call our last resort, the Hospital that has a pretty good rep, for psychiatric, Residential Treatment Center (RTC) etc. I was seeing if they had any outpatient psychiatrist's or any leads. Last I had heard they did not. So I talked to a woman in the psychiatric dept, she said oh we work with 2 psychiatrist's... gee, one was our psychiatrist and the other was one who is not taking any new patients and referred me to psychiatrist!!! I told her my dillema. She said that is not acceptable...and she would be troubled by not having the psychiatrist call back either and it was very troubling! But, she said we are saturated here and I am sorry I can't help you. I also asked again about the only developmental pediatrician, who is at that hospital also, same answer, she is so far out still. But I got her number again anyway.(for difficult child 2) So do I go to my follow up apt with psychiatrist? And how do I breech the subject about her not calling back without getting, very upset??? The apt is in 2 weeks. I have to go by myself with difficult child. I just don't want to lose it on her!!! But I want to get the point across that we need her to be available, I just feel like our backs are against the wall. Because she knows how desperate people are to get in to any psychiatrist... If I complain, who else am I gonna go to? Can I really fire her??? I am going to keep calling all of the ones that told me no and try again...ugh. I think our pediatrician will work with us if we have no psychiatrist and are desperate, but obviously she doesn't want it this way!!! This is all temporary until we can figure out how and when to move... we are thinking in a year. So we just need to get through this year. I think, that is our plan so far... we just need to get her some help, somewhere. We are thinking Tucson. So if anyone knows anything about Tucson, good or bad please let us know. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
