Dr. Heidi Fowler answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

In a neutral but: Supportive manner- discuss your concerns with her. Be prepared to provide her with specific examples. Ask if she has noticed any problems. If is she is open to it - encourage her to discuss with her physician. Even if she is resistant - you have planted a seed. It is her choice. Take care.
