What to Expect Seeing A Psychiatrist
The first appointment with a psychiatrist is usually an initial evaluation. The psychiatrist will want to get to know you and what difficulties you are experiencing. The appointment durations are typically between 45-90 minutes. Your psychiatrist will ask you about your background medical history, what issues are concerning you and how they affect your life. A treatment plan will then be made. Your psychiatrist may recommend you to see a particular specialist or have laboratory tests to assess your health status.
Can I Bring Someone With Me?
You are more than welcome to bring a family member or a friend to your appointment if you want to. They are able to either wait for you at the reception or come in for all or part of the appointment.
Getting An Appointment
As with all medical specialists, the first step towards seeing a psychiatrist is getting a referral from your general practitioner (family doctor). Once you have received the referral, you are then able to call your preferred Psychiatry Clinic and book in a consultation. Remember, it is important to book in advance as waiting periods may apply.
