If I may ask, how exactly are psychiatrists in the UK who work for the NHS remunerated? Do they get a fixed salary, or a fixed fee per consultation, or do they get paid by the hour, or what?

> Psychiatry is a mixed profession. You get the Good the Bad and the Ugly. There are some very good pdocs out there who sincerely care about their patients and offer them an excellent standard of care. Alas in my experience they are out numbered by the Bad and the Ugly, those that are only interested in lining their pockets and in the British NHS those who are only interested in dishing out tablets and then quickly placing the patient back on the conveyor belt to be seen again in 3 to 6 months time.
