Am I hoping for too much? It seems that one dishes out pills and the other listens - but the two rarely talk to one another. If anyone knows of a happy psychiatrist / psychologist partnership I’m dying to hear about it and better still, get a recommendation! Live in London. Thank you.

Hi!

I'm a psychologist and work happily alongside my NHS psychiatrist colleagues! Good partnerships do exist! But it's rare. I've been around a while and met very few psychiatrists I see eye to eye with!! The ones I'm with now r great!!

Good luck!!

It's extremely common in NHS secondary services, pretty standard really.
