Yes, you can PM me. Looking forward to your new thread !!
Endlessly is the operative word for all the searching I have been doing. I hope I can settle with him.
This psychiatrist is a doctor, or that is what the customer service rep called him. When I looked him up, I see he has only been in practice a little under one year, so not sure really what status he is, will ask him when I see him. Thank you for the heads up. This is a teaching hospital, so he is in the right place for just starting out. Hoping he is supervised, I will ask him that as well.
I asked for twice a week and her response is that she's booked, so will take what I can.
Migraine is done, thank goodness !!!
How are you ??
Take good care,
Birdie

I hope you can stay with this psychiatrist on a long term basis. It is too much trouble to have to keep searching endlessly.
Did the medicare office say that the clinic is not supposed to be demanding the 20%? And that you may report them. Did I understand it correctly?
Is the psychiatrist still a resident or is he an attending physician? In my experience, if he is an attending, I wouldn't worry about it. In residency they work with hundreds of patients before they graduate from residency. If he is still a resident, at least he will be supervised, although he would have much less experience than an attending physician would. I really hope it works out for you.
I really hope you feel better soon. I can imagine how going through all that trauma can cause the migraine. I am not attacking your therapist. But, she should understand why you can't go through it so quickly. I mean you have many traumatic situations to process. Again, I am not attacking your therapist at all.You might want to ask her if you can come twice a week. See what she has to say.
Thank you for following up with me too! It means a lot.
