Hi Hummingbird1950!

I just sent you a PM about my friend. I wrote about some of the things that happened but not everything yet.

If this new psychiatrist is board certified, he is more than qualified to treat you. That means he has graduated from medical school and residency. He is definitely an attending physician. He is probably teaching medical students and residents which means that he doesn't need to be supervised.

On top of that, he has been working for four years as a board certified attending physician.. He has probably treated hundreds of patients by now. At this point, he is very, very qualified. Hands down. He does not need supervision.

See if he can help you. I hope it works out well for you!
