He charged me $375 -- doesn't take insurance. Fortunately I have some out of network benefits. As far as linkadge's question, I would say a good p-doc is one with extensive CLINICAL experience -- often these are older docs who have worked with TCAs, old APs, MAOIs as well as the newer generation of drugs. Salzman must be 75. My own p-doc is 71 and does therapy with me -- he still does therapy. A lot of younger p-docs have mostly theoretical knowledge,from med school, residencies, drug reps, journal articles (a fair percentage of them ghostwritten by drug companies). As opposed to actual clinical experience seeing how patients have responded, what type of patient responds to what type of drug, what drugs mix well together and what don't, etc.
