Wow, he sounds very different from most of the psychiatrists and doctors I have met.  Sounds like your visit was productive.

I am not a medical professional and nothing I say is a medical opinion or meant to be medical advice, please seek a competent and trusted medical professional to consult for all medical decisions.

Wonderful article, GK.

 

Refusing payment was the only ethical thing he could do. I'm surprised payment was even on the table.

This is not medical advice. Discuss any decisions about your medical care with a knowledgeable medical practitioner.
