In this video, I have a video chat with Dr. Ashley Weiss, a Psychiatrist based in New Orleans in the United States. We discuss some helpful tips to consider in order to have as successful of a psychiatry appointment as possible.

Thank you so much Ashley for being a part of our new series!

This video is part of a series where we are speaking with different kinds of mental health care professionals to get their perspectives and also to learn more about how they can help those living with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder.
