This could be a very helpful for others, and I wonder if people can find it,  if they look for informations like this. @Chippy, do we have a place to collect information about good doctors or people one could consult like Angie Peacock and others? If not, that might be a good idea.

One to think about. Perhaps for the minute if anyone has info like it and wants send me a PM and I'll have a think about how to compile it all and make it available. 

I’m not a medical professional and cannot offer medical advice. I only offer my thoughts as support. Please speak to your health practitioner about your care. This is a peer site where we support each other on our taper/recovery journeys. 

 

If you are from the UK please make sure you fill in a 'Yellow Card' report for the MHRA. It is you doing your bit to help make a difference.

Please take the time to do it today 🙂 https://yellowcard.mhra.gov.uk

Not yet. We do have suggestions threads.

 

The difficulty with this is:

  1. keep it up to date
  2. verifying who is "good"
  3. avoiding giving medical advice and potentially being liable

SA does have a list, which is likely very out of date.

 

My own personal opinion is that for the most part when you're badly harmed, even the "good" practitioners can't actually tell you anything that hasn't already come from online peer support communities. They just tell you it for lots of money instead of for free...

 

It's also important to keep in mind that myself and @Chippy started this space to help people, but it's not like we know more than the rest of the community when it comes to which doctors are good and which aren't.

 

We can look at it, but we're just harmed patients, like the rest of us here.

I absolutely understand. What you’re writing makes a lot of sense. The big value in this forum is the exchange among people who go through the same experience or who have gone through it. So maybe such a list is not what you need to provide here. Thank you!

 

Sorry only just seen both these comments. Im open to ideas with things. There are considerations here for sure. Im open to being sent contacts and Luke and I can chat about how and if we want to do anything with them.


We are just two mere mortals, this is true! 🤣
