psychiatrists who go above and beyond?
with the national stimulant shortage, it's becoming a necessity for me to call my pharmacy and my psychiatrist like 10 times each every single time i need to fill my prescription. i feel like an absolute nuisance trying to find a place that carries my medication and at what dosage, then calling my psych back, then calling the pharmacy back, etc…. it's an absolute headache and just so common for me at this point, and my psych has been getting super annoyed with me and she's not super helpful and it's not the greatest.
i'm also probably going to try and get prior authorization for coverage of the medication that was working really well for me before i had to switch to one that works, though it works less well, which is the one that i'm struggling to have filled.
does anyone know of any psychiatrists in the greater houston area that are willing to go above and beyond for ther patients? that is, one that would be willing to and super nice and helpful with the entire process of prior authorization and also just… finding where my medication is and/or not minding that they sometimes have to keep writing scripts or calling around until we can?
i know this is probably super rare and sounds like a crazy ask LOL but i know they have to exist somewhere because my friend's mom (they live and are licensed in another state so that's not an option before anyone says that lmao) literally specifically tries to save all of her patients money and time through like all these different methods, calling diff pharmacies about medication availability and cost, order time, etc. i know this bc my friend was like wtf that's crazy when i told them my psych was charging for pharmacy changes my mom literally does all these things… but anyways…
tysm for your help!!!
