“Julia was professional the entire time. She asked good questions. Overall, I was pleased with the discussion. However, I did have one concern. I felt that information exchanged during the brief 45 minute meeting was not enough time to prescribe medication. I’m looking forward to start working my issues with a professional psychiatrist. After a few visits with the psychiatrist, I would think that the nurse practitioner would consult with the psychiatrist to determine if medication is an appropriate course of action. ”
