Thanks! >Steve Alborn >scalb...(a)juno.com > Steve, The doctor I use is a Neuropharmopsychiatrist. He got his training at NIMH and is board certified. If you can do some research as to someone in your area with these credentials, I think you might have some better luck. Mine is in Boulder, CO. Maybe a call to NIMH might help you find someone.
