How do you find a good cardiologist who treats mentally ill pat. as if they are real humans and don't act like taking an antipsychotic is elective med?

Changing Doctors: Unfortunately there will not be a lot gained here by complaining about your physician. We do not know them; we are different then them; and we did not cause this negative interaction. Now that said. Yes. One may take some time to find the right doctor for them. I often recommend that patients look with their family doctor to find a good specialist. Trust your friend's recommendations.

I'm sorry...: That you've had that experience. I hate when that happens, but i've heard that from my patients many times: "if you would just get off that seroquel, (quetiapine) you'd be fine!" or something similar. Some can switch to a different med--latuda seems to have a better se profile than others; but many people struggle for too long to find a drug that works for them and can't just switch. Ask md to refer you elsewh.
