[QUOTE="Josie, post: 377921, member: 1792"] We have had one psychiatrist that did my daughter's therapy, too. Even when he wasn't her therapist, he took the time he needed to figure things out. There was frequently a long wait in the waiting room and he billed by the hour. So, if our appointment was supposed to be 15 minutes and took 30, we paid twice the fee. But, it was worth it. We also had to pay out of pocket. We have had two others that spend about 15 minutes just for medication management. They will discuss issues but that is not their primary goal. I have found that most of our favorite doctors do not take insurance. I think it is because they want to spend the time needed and can't make enough money if they can only charge the insurance rate which only allows for a certain amount of time. If you can afford it, you could maybe find a good one by looking for one that doesn't take insurance. [/QUOTE]
