I would recommend contact Chris Gavin who is at NIMH and a writer at BipolarNews.org at info@bipolarnews.org . He has been
doing research in bipolar disorder for over 12 years now, and was part of
the Stanley Foundation Bipolar Network for the 8 years it was in
existence.John Lehmann PhD

I wouldn't recommend going to a doctor who is a faculty member and works out of the clinic at a university simply because that is heavily research based and a doctor could be more likely to prescribe medicine faster than a private doctor. That's just my opinion from personal experience.
