A member asked:
I know that neurologists can treat certain disorders such as adhd, dementia or ocd. how is it different from the way a psychiatrist treats it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
More comprehensive: I would expect that a psychiatrist would include consideration of more emotional and family factors in eval and recc. Neurologists tend to focus just on dx and meds
