[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 133078, member: 1550"] A psychiatrist has a medical degree. Big difference. I wouldn't put them on the same level at all. The psychologist may have a working knowledge of medications, but she hasn't been to medical school. I definitely would prefer a psychiatrist. Prozac is not a good medication for many, many kids. I'd want the Psychiatrist to come up with his own evaluation. All the labels your child has really means, "I don't really know." [/QUOTE]
