TREATMENT STYLE
Finding the proper diagnosis
Dr. Sachs understands that psychiatry can be one of the most complex medical specialties because, unlike many other medical fields, there are no definite tests, imaging, or procedures that give us the exact answer. A psychiatrist works to develop a diagnosis and treatment plan tailored to the individual, often in tandem with other specialists. There are absolutely no outside influences -- no drug company pressures, no insurance pressure, and no "one size fits all" standard of care. If you lined up 100 psychiatrists, sometimes you could get 100 different diagnoses for the same mental condition, along with 100 treatment ideas. You may have already been given diagnoses by others, but you will get a fresh take. We will start from scratch with the diagnostic process, and we will either find new ways to approach the issue or continue what has already been working for you.
