In reply to How to Find the Best Doctors?, posted by Billb on October 4, 2000, at 19:23:05
> What is the best way to find a pdoc who specializes in social anxiety and uses agressive strategies to identify the best medications to help my condition? Are there directories or references that will point me to a "good" pdoc? Life goes by so quickly I don't feel that I have time to "trial and error" thru a series of doctors.

He is currently involved in the development of VNS (vagal nerve stimulation), but has a distinguished career in investigative psychopharmacology. He's a nice guy, and I'm sure he'll take the time to give you some good referrals.
Good luck.
