Hi everyone,

Well I did all my test and visits ,and had a appiontment for 2/20 for a pysch doctor,well I just found out that the doctor is going on vacation and won't be back till end of March. He is the doctor my surgeon had written down on his list of doctors.Mind you I made the appontment a month ago and its my last letter of clearence I need. SO i am asking if anybody know a pysch doctor that will give me a clearence soon. Any names and addresses,I would appreciate it very very much...
Thanks so much

I used Doctor Grant. I think his number is 732 583 7226. Not sure if he takes insurance (he didn't take mine).

Also, maybe Doctor Sakowitz, who post here often, can help you.

Here is a link to his site:

Since it's been over a year, I can't really remember - but I want to say $350.00 (could be higher or lower).

Here is a link which may help too

Hi Denise

I used the doctor at St Clare's in Dover.  You could always call the hospital and see who they are using (I know they changes since my surgery).

Good luck

I'd be glad to see you.

The most any patient ever has to pay out of pocket is $175.

Good luck with whatever you choose to see.

By the way I wrote an article on the psych eval which appeared in OH....reading it will haelp you know what to expect.

Now that you mention it, it may have been $175.00. As I said, it's been over a year - and my mind isn't what it used to be.
Good Luck on your Journey !!
