The Black Dog Institute ‘finding a mental health friendly doctor,’ is a helpful guide for patients to find the right GP.
When patients seek help for depression or other mental health concerns, often their first point of call is a General Practitioner (GP). Discussing mental health challenges can be difficult so it is important to refer patients to the right doctor they feel comfortable talking to. Mental health friendly GPs have skill and knowledge in mental health, and help support their patients on the road to recovery.
