My pdoc primarily prescribes meds, but he doesn't always prescribe meds for every client. He told me upfront that if he didn't think meds would help, he would tell me so and refer me to alternatives. I think he'd be willing to do talk therapy and would probably be great at it...but he's way too expensive! He does not take insurance and an hour of his time is over $400. So, yeah, I'll keep my T (who is awesome anyway) and just see pdoc for medication management.

My pdoc is willing to talk about alternatives to medication during my 20 minute appointments, and is willing to talk briefly about issues I might be having, but it's impossible to get in to any depth in just 20 minutes.
