| What Matters Most to You | DOCS Medical East Haven | Other Psychiatric Providers |
|---|---|---|
| Rapid Access to Care | Same-day to 1-week consultation availability. | Most demand a 2- to 6-week waiting period. Many have closed their practices to new clients entirely. |

| Comprehensive Insurance Coverage | We work with Medicaid, Medicare, and all major insurance carriers. Self-pay arrangements are also available. | Many exclude Medicaid or maintain restrictive insurance panels, creating unexpected out-of-pocket expenses. |
| Flexible Scheduling Options | Initial face-to-face consultation, followed by convenient telehealth appointments. Evening availability for working families. | Typically demand repeated in-person appointments during standard business hours only, disrupting work schedules. |
| Emergency Support Access | Integrated with DOCS urgent care facilities. Your psychiatric provider collaborates with urgent care physicians who understand your complete treatment history. | Direct you to hospital emergency departments where staff have no knowledge of your psychiatric care or current medications. |
| Convenient Follow-up Care | Protected telehealth appointments from your home following initial evaluation. No commuting or parking challenges for standard medication reviews. | Demand repeated office appointments for routine medication check-ins, even when unnecessary. |
