I see a Psych PA who works under a pdoc, so obviously my experience is probably a little different since he isn't actually a doc but rather a mid level; so he might do things a little differently than a tradition doc.
My first appointment with him was an hour long; obviously it lasted a little longer since I was the last one of the day.
He typically does 30 minute med follow ups which so far I haven't had to see him for a med follow up but even then that is still a decent amount of time to properly adjust things; granted I typically still see my primary doc and he typically deals with my psych meds which is usually a 15 minute appointment but honestly I like using my primary doc for everything even though the copays are the same to see him or the Psych PA.
He also does therapy and I have had to see him for therapy a few times when my other T is dealing with his personal life. I really like this guy he's pretty good.
I would say if a pdoc isn't giving you at least 15 minutes then you really should be finding another pdoc.
